Happy Birthday Uncle Minor

My favorite uncle, Minor Bower, just celebrated his 83rd birthday this week. He lives near Marine City on the St. Clair River. He is non-stop fun. Today's blog is to honor this special day.
We were last together at a family reunion in 2008. We fired up the cribbage board and warred it out. We even taught the younger generation to play the game. Uncle Minor was quite the ping-pong player in his day. Our Andrew is Andrew Minor in his honor. Now Andrew goes by Minor in Texas. A continuing of the name honor.

Uncle Minor also had a set of twins. Doug and Tim were nonstop trouble when they came to the farm (my home in Adrian, Michigan). We had so many great times. Big sister Janna is in the back and best of all little Bill was not born yet. Happy Birthday Uncle Minor!
