The family has lost a daughter, wife, aunt and grandmother. She is now with Jesus, her savior and all of her family.  Aunt Frieda
was a self made renaissance woman, successful as a teacher and
businessowner. Growing up in Woodston, Kansas, a small town in
Northwestern Kansas we had a special family bond. Darlene and I moved to Los Angeles in 1974,  just 90 miles from Bakersfield and we were able to visit Aunt Frieda frequently over the next 31 years.
When I lost my corporate  job in 1977, she prayed with me and encouraged me as I started my insurance agency.  She had the joy of the lord and always enjoyed a funny joke. One of her favorites was a story about a 3 legged chicken. "Fellow was driving about 45 miles an hour down a country road and he noticed a 3 legged chicken running beside the car. He accelerated up to 65 miles an hour and the chicken did the same. The chicken then accelerated and went ahead and turned down a country road.  Fellow turned down the road asked a farmer if he say a 3 legged chicken? Farmer said, "yes" I raise 3 legged chickens. Fellow asked "why"?
Farmer said, well, I like the drumstick, Ma likes the drumstick and when Junior came along he likes the drumstick too, so I started raising 3 legged chickens.  Well, what does it taste like? Farmer said, I don't know, I have never been able to catch one!"
Rest in Peace, Aunt Frieda
