Wordless Wednesday: A Cautionary Holiday Tale

Let this be a cautionary tale to all of us who decorate the exterior of our houses for the holidays.

My 6th cousin Elden Deroy Pettit was 28 years old when he died on December 10, 1964. He was up on the roof of a relative's house putting up Christmas lights and fell to his death. He left a wife and at least one child.
