Roger and seven brothers
Roger Brunelle (61) is the 2nd oldest of the 8 Brunelle brothers. Roger retired from the Postal Service Nov 30, 2005 at age 62 years and 8 months after exactly 20 years of service to you and our mail system. I have my library of 2300 books to read, which are mostly about religious subjects, during my retirement. I have read 10 books since I retired.
My immediate younger brother, Vernon Bruce (62), died Aug 16, 2006 of pancreatic cancer at age 62 and 2 months.
My one older brother, Robert (59), died Feb 13, 2011 of Alzheimer’s at age 69 and 2 months.
Roger with improved eyesight!
July14, 2010 extreme cataracts forced me to replace my natural eye lens with functional TECNIS multifocal lens. I no longer need to wear glasses and I can see 20/30 from my worst eye. I am very comforted in being able to see well.
I watch way too much TV — mostly educational programs, the big four tennis tournaments and religious programming striving to explain ETERNITY — which I wish to each of my classmates — ENJOY the very best possible ETERNITY.
