Refinished And Reborn







 “Ready to be abused by the next generation” Jeff Jeansonne

In amazement I stared at the picture of my mother-in-law’s kitchen table and the comment posted by my son. At a very early age my wife sat at this very same table with her five brothers and four sisters.  For many years I have enjoyed sitting at this table…sitting and listening to my mother-in-law, “Big Red,” tell the most interesting and fascinating stories of the history and life on the Texas High Plains. After her passing at the age of 104 the well-worn and rickety old table was given to my son.  After months of laboring over the restoration he has brought it back to serve as a wonderful memory of his grandmother.

Thanks Jeff, you and your talent continually amaze me. I pray you and your family will continue the tradition of enjoying family time around this beautiful piece of furniture.

Love,
Dad
