BUNDLE OF JOY

 


April 2, 1977


Jeremy Todd Nichols was born during a "Springtime in the Rockies" blizzard on a Saturday afternoon following a harrowing ride to the hospital in the old 1968 Mustang Fastback--including a stop at the gas station where we happened to meet one of Ross' former colleagues who seemed bent on a friendly visit--before we safely made it to St. Anthony Central hospital in Denver, Colorado, where Jeremy made his entrance into the world.

It's hard to believe it's been 48 years!

Here are a few special moments in his short life before that beautiful summer morning 10 years later when he fell 25 feet from an old Cottonwood tree and died the following day--at St. Anthony Central hospital in Denver where he had been born.

(Sorry about the portrait presentation instead of landscape--I tried and tried to rotate it but without success!  The pictures are still great, though, depicting some of his short life.)
