A family of survivors

Various ancestors of mine have endured and survived, among other things,famine, ocean voyages, wars, economic depression, and at least two major floods. My contribution to the survivor hall of fame in my ancestry: surviving childhood sexual abuse, and major illnesses of a spouse. Hey I am in good company with the likes of robert w., george s., william h., john m., joseph s, and a guy named Faust who lost an eye. So here's to you, survivor ancestors of mine, and I look forward to someday meeting all of you, most for the first time, and talking about it. Until then, rest warriors, I'll take up the flag, and continue the survival.
Amen
