Welcome to the Family side of my page.
The Thackerson Family
Here are some old family pictures of me and one of my sisters when young.

Yvonne Potter Early Days.. (MOM)
Stacey Lynn My Sister! Around 1960?
Older Sister Sonja Kay with someone? 1956
This is my dads pump organ.
It belonged to his dad. My Great-grandfather.
My dad received it back around 1983 and totally restored it. Replacing the Bellows, the brass notes (the part that the air goes through and makes sound)
His dad had kept a wood box of them from the days when he repaired organs.
The box was an old Bon Ami box! I still have it.
When my dad pass away on in Dec. of 2004 I was very lucky to have my 2 sisters hand it down to me.
I don't play the organ but it has a very proud place in my house.
The Guitar and Mantel Clock were also dads. The clock was presented to him for 25 years at Chevrolet Div. of General Motors.
Me and My sisters Stacey left, Sonja next to me.
