Melvna and Dale
I hadn't seen Melvena Beck (now Brown) since 1956, but in the last few months we have been emailing.  She lives in Abilene and one of my grandsons was in the Texas High School Rodeo Finals held in Abilene in June.  I emailed Melvena to tell her we would be there and she very graciously and bravely invited us to stay there.  So, myself and 3 grandkids spent the night with her after the first rodeo, then the next morning she attended the second performance with us. 
We had a really good time and she is just as sweet as ever.
 
One of my grandkids took this picture of us.
