BIRTHDAY GREETING TO CURTIS


July 26,1975
Fort Simpson
North West Territories

Corunna Ontario
July 1978


Sliding across the ice
at the O'Rourke cottage
Lake Erie


Cottage life.......

Curtis and his summer friend Christian


Curt and friend Richard


Camping trip to Bolger
It looks like his brother is doing
all the work!

Curtis' cousin Dan sent him all
his army toys
Was he excited or what!!!!!!!!!!


At Grandma O'Rourke's cottage on the Dyke Road
Lake Erie


O'ROURKE'S DINER
Connecticut
Here we are with Aunt Alice
Didn't quite make it in time
to get a bite to eat


One of my favourite prints
The girl in the print is named
 Ida


We have sort of short hair


We have long hair


The Finn family always seems to show upin the stories!!!!
Curtis has his
Father Gerald LaBelle school
 jacket on
Do you remember Jennifer's friend John Vargo????
He even made it into the blog


Stag Island Day
Here we have Paul Ouellette and Curt husking corn
We would have all the Windsor families and our one Chatham family to the island for the day
LOTS OF FUN


An O'Rourke get together at the old school
house on Bloomfield Road
Chatham
Grandpa and Grandma O'Rourke attended school here and have their initials engraved in the bricks


Curt out at school in Victoria BC


One of our trips west
We are at Moraine Lake

Look at that little monkey sneaking in the picture


One handsome man with Aunt Billie in the background


Here are Curtis' friends Tammy and Dwayne
with their son Hunter


Gwendolyn has to get in the act


I have lost it with giggles
I think I was trying to braid his hair
He did not like that

A lovely lady has come into his life


Then there was a wedding


All of us except for Garen
He was napping


The bride and groom




They're all grown up!!!!!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY
CURTIS JAMES MATTHEW
