John – The pictures come with a friend request from your 1rst cousin John Elcik, IV. I hope you enjoy the photos.
Mark – Thank you for the pictures of dad next to his cruiser and him in uniform, black and white. I have, but I hadn’t seen the other one before. Life is going by at a high rate of speed. It’s nice to hear from you.
John – I agree. I’m retired, and with the extra time on my hands, I’ve been working on the family tree. I have been communicating with Beth and Janet. Beth is working with me on some of this. If you decide you are interested, I can provide you access to Ancestry.com. I need an email address for you to make an invitation.
Mark – MarkLcheck@yahoo.com
John – I see you like to fish! It looks like a lot of fun. I have a friend here who takes me fishing. I go to be sociable. I’m not very good at it. ?
Mark – Our grandfather was an unbelievable fisherman. He spent lots of time at it.
John – I didn’t know that.
John – I’m written some documents that you may find of interest. I’ll send you the one on why we spell our name Elcik.
John – I’ll try not to disturb your tranquil life, but maybe I can entertain you with some of my findings.
John – You can always reach me on Facebook or at johnelcik@msn.com.
Mark – Excellent.
John – Have you seen the video of your dad and mine singing Slovak nursery rhymes? The video is a huge file.
Mark – Awesome that last time I spoke to Uncle was when Auntie Gertrude passed away.
John – We loved watching it here. Pam (my wife), J.P. (son), and Michelle (daughter).
Mark – I haven’t seen the video lol.
John – I’ll find a way to send you a link. The file is too large to post here.
Mark – Thanks
John – My pleasure!
Mark – OMG, lol, that was good. I wish I could have been there. That day, I had knee surgery, so I now see what I missed. Thank you for sharing the video.
John – I’m happy you liked it. It is not a substitute for being there. But good!
John – I’m training a new puppy, and she needs my attention. Catch you another time. ?
Mark – What kind?
John – Lucy Belle, a chihuahua and terrier mix. 🙂
Mark – Sent thumbs up.
