Frankie Nelson Whipple Memories:
Papa Frank
"Papa wasn't much of a farmer."
When one of his daughters speaks of 'Papa" it is almost with reverenc e . He was a man who sang, and danced, and built toys for little ones. H e h ad a strong, rich voice and sang in the church choir. He sang at fami ly p arties and other gatherings. Some days he would come in from milkin g sing ing, "La..La..La..Lillie, b..b..b.. beautiful Lillie, You're the o nly gir l that I adore..." On days when he should perhaps have been in th e field s plowing, he would instead be on hands and knees scrubbing the f loors s o Grandma wouldn't have to. He made a family joke about Birthingt on's Was hday, the day when he could be found muscling the handle that ma de the an cient washer churn. And he would sing as he worked.
"We always had a big tree for Christmas."
Farm families created their own fun for holidays. Grandma made her Chri s tmas ornaments from walnut shells, glued together after the meat was ta ke n out. She circled each in lace then painted them gold. And the famil y al ways strung popcorn and cranberries for the tree. But the real magi c cam e from the candles. Papa placed tiny candles in holders all over th e tree . Then when the moment was right he would light them all, just fo r a fe w minutes before he and the children scrambled to blow them al l o ut. Bu t for a few minutes at Christmas the candles twinkled on the tre e and ref lected in the wide eyes of his children.
"Papa built things; oh, he was good at building things."
What Papa may have lacked in desire and ability as a farmer he more th a n made up for in woodworking skills. He built a fence and gates for th e h ouse that were works of art. And his children played on the teeter- t otte r and other toys he made for them.
"I don't remember if they kissed, but I'm sure they did."
There is little doubt that Papa loved Grandma. On cold nights he wou l d go to bed before she did, lying on her side of the bed to get it war m b efore she came in. Then he would move to the cold side to make room f or h er.
Papa's love for Grandma was easy and natural. When they drove anywher e h is arm just went around her. His affection was so open that his chil dre n did not even think about it. It was just there. The family lost th e far m and was forced to move to Logan. Grandma didn't want to leave, sh e wa s sad, but they drove to Logan with Papa's arm around her and sayin g to h er gently, "Lillie, we'll be back."
