Louis Schoeck




 Louis Schoeck.  I never knew him.  He was one of my three great grandfather’s that I never knew.  He was my paternal grandfather‘s father.  I thought of fathers and him tonight.  His father was Gottleib Schoeck a German immigrant who was naturalized.  I know from my father‘s cousin who has knowledge of the family that Gottleib was an abusive man and his children all hated him.  When he died and was buried, they did not give him a headstone.  My 2x great grandfather Louis was one of 11 children.  

“Footprints in the Snow”.  Ode to a peaceful and beautiful winter sight.  How lovely to gaze upon natures trails in a beautiful white winter blanket.  And ice crystals.  Ice crystals are a part of the beauty of winter.  These were just my next thoughts after my ancestor and family genealogy contemplations.  I guess footprints in the snow and winter weren’t finished in my thoughts.  Thank you television screensaver program for the ice crystals image that just cycled into view on my television screen. 😄❄️👍
