My Nan and Gramp

I know this is a lot of photos, but I love and miss my grandparents dearly. I have so many nice photos of them, I just had to share.

Their 25th Wedding Anniversary.

Wally Bursey (aka Wallace)

Wallace Bursey was a professor at Memorial University in St. John's Newfoundland and my grandmother's (Hilda's) brother. He was also an author and wrote books such as Seasons of Silver Thaw and No Right of Spring.

Wally's son Brian is a wonderful Newfoundland photographer who has numerous books, calendars, etc.  I believe Brian's wife Marilyn also wrote a book.

Bill Loder and Marion Bursey

I am not 100% certain, but I think this is Wally, Marion and Brian.

Wally is front right with brother Stan behind him. Father John in middle. Little sister Mary in front. John's sister Mary in back left and their Mom, Matilda Bursey (nee Pike) in back. I am not certain who is in the back right. It could be Hilda or Vera with an unknown man.
