Happy Birthday to Grandpa Shisler!

Grandpa Shisler on the Bobcat with Jack this spring


Today is Scott's Dad's birthday, Don Shisler is 82 today. Grandpa Shisler lives in Ohio, of course, and still farms. He sells seed to farmers on the side as well. He is an active guy who works very hard. He drove a milk route for Smith Dairy for many years before he retired from that job. Waking very early to drive that and then returning home to farm. I think that must be the gene that our boys have to wake early....hmmm should I thank you for that??

Our boys are the only grandchildren on Scott's side of the family. And the only great- grandchildren from Don's father, Ray, that carry the Shisler name. We have always thought that was pretty special. We don't take the meaning of our family name for granted and we are doing our best to teach our children the importance of honoring your family name in all you do and in who you are.

We are thinking of you today and hope you have a special day!

With love,
