Jonco’s Journal – The Wedding

It was three years ago today, that Jon ‘Jonco’, B&P Pioneer, passed away after an accident at home. I had gifted him this blank father’s journal many years ago, and he returned it to me just months before he died. I’m sharing his entries with you all here in this segment; Jonco’s Journal. -krisgo

Jon & Pat married Sept. 28, 1968

Heidelbergs Inn Restaurant on Bellefontaine Rd is no longer in business. The Cheshire Inn is still there on Clayton Rd though.

‘The following year’, it says, ‘we took 4 days and drove to Albuquerque NM’.

Mom was not an adventurous cook in those early years. She’s much more interested in trying new things now. Dad also loved trying new recipes he’d find online.
