Herbert Zanski's Story
|
Last Thanksgiving we had almost the whole clan back at our
house for Thanksgiving. Marge and the girls spent all day in the kitchen
cooking up a storm. So finally everything is already and set up in the
dining room. Marge comes in the room to call us for diner and the next
thing we know Buster had jumped on the table and was eating our Thanksgiving
turkey. We had to call out for pizza. That’s one Thanksgiving I’ll
never forget!!! |
Marge Zanski's Story
 |
I remember one day I’m sitting inside watching golf
on tv and Herb is mowing the front lawn. All of a sudden I hear a ruckus
going on out in the front yard so I turn off the television and walk outside.
Sure enough there was Herb with the lawn mower flipped over. The neighbors
had come out of the house and were helping him up. Thank God he wasn’t
hurt but he was pretty embarrassed, now every time he mows the lawn I
make the neighbors keep an eye on him. |
Billy Zanski's Story
 |
One day me and my friends were eating lunch in school and
it was pasta day and the pasta at my school is so gross. So my friend
Tommy accidently spills chocolate milk all over my food. Then he says
I’ll give you five dollars if you eat it. So I did and he had to
give me five dollars it was so funny. |
Leonard Zanski's
Story
 |
This is more of a story about happiness than being funny.
I remember the day Garth was born. I remember being in the emergency room
and the doctor looked at me and said, Mr. Zanski, you have a son. It was
my most memorable moment. From that day on I tried to make myself a better
person. |
Garth Zanski's Story
 |
My story isn’t as interesting as everybody else but
when I was six years old I remember I my dad took me to see Guns and Roses
open for Poison, and it was the greatest thing anybody has ever done for
me. I love my dad. |
Rob Zanski's Story
 |
I remember when I was little Leonard and Herbert would always
gang up on me and beat me up. I remember one cold January day when they
held me down and threw snow in my face and had me completely covered in
snow. They were laughing and I was crying, as it turns out I was in the
snow for so long and I almost got frostbite. My mom rushed me to the hospital
and luckily I was alright, but after my mom got through with them it was
the last time they ever ganged up on me again. |
Dawn Zanski's Story
 |
The funniest story I have is when I met Robert. We were
both still at law school and I remember one day I was in the library reviewing
some cases for one of our exams and I look up and I see Robert coming
down the stairs and I look at him and he looks at me…..then falls
right down the stairs. I felt so horrible I ran over to him and we ended
up spending the day together, and now our lives. |
Granny Zanski's Story

I remember when I was in labor with Herbert for a day and
a half. I remember how much pain I was going through. I wanted to kill
his father for doing it to me, but in the end he was worth all of the
pain. |

The place was horrible. I remember Walter treated it like a palace and

learn to love it. |
