Trip To Florida
Back in September 2023, I took a trip to visit my mother in Sarasota, Florida. While there, we did and got much accomplished. One thing was to go through some of my mother's photos. Many but the first one I'd like to share is a beautiful portrait of our wounderful
Phebe Louise Cummings Witt
More to follow.

Pictures April 7th, 2018
We would like to share with you Eva Sipple Brink, a very special person, who passed December 05, 2021 at the age of 97. Eva was born in Spring Brook, Dunn County, Wisconsin on April 07, 1924 making this picture taken on her 94th birthday. Eva was our eldest matriarch from A. Fred and Phebe Witt. Her mother, Olive Witt Sipple, was their eldest daughter and thus Eva is mentioned by name in the HISTORY OF DUNN COUNTY WISCONSIN by F. Curtiss-Wedge, PH. D., published 1925, page 357-358.
FIVE GENERATIONS
Both of these pictures were taken on April 7, 2018.
This one is part of five generations of Eva's family.
From left to right:

Our now current matriarch is Leona Martell Metzger, born June 07, 1929 in Menomonie, Wisconsin to Eldon and Norma Martell nee Witt.
More on this to follow soon.
Forest Center Church of the Nazarene
Forest Center Church is significant not only by it's location but by the fact that the original land to start the church
was donated by Phebe's cousin, Eugene O. Cummings, who was a carpenter by trade.
Forest Center is also the first ever Church of the Nazarene in the state of Wisconsin.
It now sits on land that Sanford and Martha Cummings, Phebe's parents, once owned in the 1800's.
The fact that the church still uses the banks and waters of the Chippewa River
for their ceremonies and rituals, just as was Jesus Christ in the River Jordan,
is definitely marvelous.
