William Vickery
Its not too hard for me to believe that this little tiny creature
below turned into the teen-age heart-breaker above. But then I'm his grandma and
we all know what grandmas are like..
Dad and Dan when he was a few months old
The cast of characters -
Mom - Nancy (Lee) Vickery
Dad - Richard Lee Vickery
Older Brother - Andrew James Vickery
And thats Danny in moms arms
The "Brothers Two" union was formed at birth. Danny and his big brother A.J. were, and still are, inseparable. They are three years apart in age but they have a connection that has always spanned the small age difference. I hope that this wonderful bond they share will last forever. While very young, they drove everyone crazy with their wrestling and picking at each other constantly. I often had my doubts that would ever grow up alive..
but they are now 17 and 20.. both are very fine, nice looking young men that our entire family is very proud of.
Danny is still in High School while A.J. is going to college and working.
This photo was taken in 1997 when Danny was nine years old. Since I lived in another city during their growing up years. From the smile on
his face I can see that he was enjoying the sport.
I didn't get to see a lot of these games, but I did manage to get to watch them in a couple of them.
Although I know we can't keep our boys to ourselves forever - its hard for us grannys to accept it sometimes. The future is yours Danny. Run with it. I have all the faith in the world that you will do it right.
