Enjoy time with family it is more precious than most realize .
You never know how the future will turn out . Things can change quick .
Lost our mom in September during harvest , and my Dad this morning. Would have never dreamed that last Christmas at all .
Hopefully we can carry on another 110 years with the family farm .
Merry Christmas and let’s remember why most of us farm and respect all different paths we take for the same goal, just trying to raise and grow food and support our families ... big or small farms .

Family is all that matters 365 days a year. That's what keeps me striving.
Christmas just makes us reflect more, nothing else.
Sorry for your loses FARROW, it will be somewhat of a lonely Christmas for you and your family. I remember you speaking about your niece's wedding this summer and how much fun you had with your family.
I still look back to the Christmas celebrations while growing up at my Grandparent's before they passed. My Grandfather was a special man. My father passed 3 1/2 years ago, so someone else is missing at the table.
Do have a new arrive that came this fall, which will make it a very special time.
Can make all the money in the world, but it will never replace those in our lives that bring us happiness.Last edited by foragefarmer; Dec 22, 2021, 18:32.

Keep them close and give them lots of hugs during this time.

My condolences to you and your family Furrow for your losses this year, hopefully their will be some comfort with having family and friends nearby during Christmas. Family is one of the most important aspects of farming and Christmas. Merry Christmas everyone.

That is a tough time, sympathies furrow, but I understand, lost Mom Nov 21, she made 90. Now Dad at 99 is very needy, grieving, after 70 years married, needs our encouragement just to go on living alone at all. Many couples near us in the past survivor gave up and died not long after first. Was that you case?

Sorry to hear Furrow, makes for a sad time. Without knowing your family I am certain your parents are proud of the man/farmer you have become and the future you will provide for the farm.
My Dad has been gone for 9 yrs and a couple times a week I end up using a tool that was his or doing a task that I remember him teaching me, or going to some of his favourite spots and the memories make it feel like he is still with me.
Merry Christmas to you and your family and all the other Agrivillers as well!

Very sorry to hear about your loss Furrow. Losing your parents is a gap that doesn't ever get filled. I lost my Dad in Feb. of this year. He was 94 and had a good run. I do take some comfort in the fact that he is with my Mom now , who left us in 2006. There has been a thousand questions I wanted to ask my Dad in the last ten months , and that familiar voice , either on the phone or at my kitchen table isn't there. Its been hard to accept , but I like to think that my parents are getting another shot at doing there lives over again , wherever they are across that great divide we will all cross at some point in the future.
Take care and think about the good things if you can.
