Betty Francsalsky Ziegler (Broadview Hts, OH) Biggest accomplishment is our family. .It has certainly expanded. Dan Ziegler and Betty have three children. Two beautiful girls and one handsome son and of course their 11 grandchildren. This in itself keeps their life full but they still manage to have time to keep up our varied circle of friends.
One of the most
difficult things for me now is: as her 11 Grandchildren age how does she keep
explaining that she still is only going to be 59 year after year now? Semi retired now and
wondering how she ever fit a full time job in. Dan thinks he has it rough now
just wait till she fully retires. My biggest job is thinking of all the things
for him to do. Bet you never thought he would become famous. Dan will go down in
the medical history books for all he has survived. Things are a bit more
difficult for him now but he does keep his sense of humor. Overheard him the
other evening telling a friend how it now takes him three weeks to do a job
that would have taken him three hours and how every day can be a new adventure
with his short term memory problems…….oh but that long term memory is
fantastic!! This has given them the opportunity to really appreciate each other
more (on occasion). They both enjoy travel, Dan more than Betty. Bet she could
enjoy it more if he did the packing, planning, shopping and all the good stuff
instead of just loading the car or cab…….They share the gardening …She thinks
about how and he does the work. She does
the planning…..If it was up to him you would just see a lot with a zillion
trees and a bazillion flowers. Life here is good and filled with much love….
most of the time. A really neat personal memory was when walking the halls Betty turned too Jan Hornback Steiger and said No! They have been close enough at times to know what the other was thinking. (NOT telling what it was though). |
