I also remember the day I had Lana and you was the first one I called and told you I gave birth to a babygirl and then I also remember when I gave birth to Frances and you was work in Seymour and made it here in like 15 mins. when I gave birth to Dakota Joseph Allen Blair. that night you was working at the cork Liquor store. I was on the phone with you during labor and you told me to calm down and breathing that everyone was on there was to Indy. I told you that I was about to deliver his gave son and you told me to hang on you have a customer you will be right back and you told the customer sorry my daughter is in labor about to have my grandbaby. you was my coach over the phone. You heard your Grandson first cry and was very proud of me for pressing on the one time and said that is my daughter and I am proud of you Lilly. I remember the day you passed away I was right there when you took your last breath daddy, you was a great Husband /Father/ Grandpa you love everyone of us. love your Daughter Lilly Margaret Bohner (Blair)
