Here we present at least an introductory collage of the Hohenstein branch of the Ghulf clan: Barb, Hillery, and Hillery's own Kyle and Kobe. Introductory? Yes. These pictures, from Facebook, are a little dated and not very well matched, but we've had some technical problems exchanging photos with Babs, what with our Kodak empire not quite communicating with hers. But rather than waiting any longer for new pics to mature--especially in light of promising new careers demanding copious amounts of time from three of the four Hohensteins--we thought it best to go forward now. Babs has been busy returning to her old avocation in eldercare, this time working for A Place for Mom. Hillery is at the end of her training in the medical field, in nursing assistance. And Kyle is launched on a career in Arsen's favorite military service, the United States Coast Guard. Only Kobe has the luxury, still, of being just a child. Good for you, Kobe! It's the best time of life!
Barbara--who, for Brigitte and me--will forever remain “Babs,” a German shortening of all Barabaras over there and thus deeply embedded in us--is our oldest daughter and, hence, presides over a line in which we are delighted to see three generations into the future: our great grand children. It makes you dizzy to think that the oldest, of two mind you, little Kyle, is is now in uniform. How time doth pass. How they shoot up...
