See that SCHERZINGEN crest (click here to see it bigger)? That's the official crest of the town of Scherzingen, Germany (current population about 80), where the Scherzinger family originated. It's a really tiny town that's actually smaller than most suburban subdivisions in the US. The crest was sent to my father, Earl, by his second cousin, Robert Carl Scherzinger, from California. Thanks, Robert!
Please feel free to roam around. There's a lot to see here, including our old Geocities site. Although it is extremely outdated and should probably just go away, I've preserved the photos, but note that the information is very old. You can access the old sites via the Family Links menu item.
We've decided it's time to end the annual family newsletter and just let you enjoy the monthlies and photo galleries here. So the final newsletter was for 2023.
See ya!
Bruce officially retired Jan 2, and both of us started Medicare on Jan 1. Life becomes interesting...so they say. So far, not so much.
Eileen went on a Princess Carribean cruise with a friend we met on an Amawaterways river cruise in 2023. They visited the Bahamas, Puerto Rico, and St. Thomas. The whole time she kept teasing Bruce that he should have gone with her. Maybe next time.
We have a new president and federal administration. We are scared.
Bruce transitioned from a blood glucose (BG) monitor to a continuous glucose monitor (CGM). So he began learning exactly how his body reacts to specific foods. At times it seems like his BG randomly swings up and down, but there is probably an answer for what's really happening there and he just hasn't discovered it yet.
Lea Last, our au pair from Aug 1998 until Jul 1999, visited us for a few days. She's from Estonia but currently lives outside of London, UK, with her husband and son. We have kept in close touch with Lea all these years and she is like family to us.
