Party Line Express and (Who We Are)
Neva had a dream of operating a family business.
She enjoys entertaining. She also likes trains,
although she admits that she has only gotten to ride
on a train once when she was a small child. That
memory remains embedded deep within her. Not
everyone gets, or has the opportunity to ride on trains.
So, why not build a train that can go just about any
where and bring smiles to faces?
Jaime, the train engineer, and talented craftsman,
thought his wife had lost her marbles with such a
crazy idea. However, with a little coaxing, he finally
said okay to her idea and set out to build the train.
Everyday after work, he would come home and slave
over building the train until ten or eleven o'clock at
night for weeks, and months until it was finally done.
Joshua, their son enjoys helping. He assisted in both
the building of the train and the details. He enjoys
playing the part of the porter.
Occasionally another son, Steve helps when his
schedule permits.
Our Interests
It takes more energy to frown then it does to smile. It
is a known fact that smiles puts you in better spirits.
Memories are to be forever lasting, and shared with
others. When times are tough, we rely on memories
to get us through those times. Without memories,
there is no hope. Memories are just as important as
the breath we take. With that said, we are interested
in making as many people smile as possible, while
providing lasting memories to be treasured for a life
time.
To do at least one good deed a day to make
someone else's day brighter.
We hope one day to add special accommodations to
our train for wheelchair bound.
Other Tid Bits
Neva double majored in Business and Early
Childhood Development of which she applies the
lessons learned in the day to day operations of Party
Line Express.
Jaime, a tractor mechanic by trade, also a very
knowledgeable person, picked up carpenter skills by
self teaching and watching shop shows such as "This
Old House" He is a natural born talented man. His
work is very impressive.
With these two paired... What one does not think of,
the other one does, and together they are just
awesomely creative.
