Family
Steely Hubert Humphrey married Norma Wynelle Patrick, daughter of Henry Carlton Patrick and Samantha Nelle Hobbs. They had four children: Jody Patrick Humphrey, Kim Wynelle Humphrey, Jeffrey Chan Humphrey, and Jennifer Lynn Humphrey. In 2005, Hubert Humphrey began construction of a $45 million mansion on 72 acres in rural Cumming, GA. After the bubble burst, the property was listed for sale. However, it didn't sell before it was foreclosed upon in November, 2009 for the $20 million loan value. But the property was eventually liquidated for a mere $11.5 million.

Famous quotes containing the word family:
“It is best for all parties in the combined family to take matters slowly, to use the crock pot instead of the pressure cooker, and not to aim for a perfect blend but rather to recognize the pleasures to be enjoyed in retaining some of the distinct flavors of the separate ingredients.”
—Claire Berman (20th century)
“It is as when a migrating army of mice girdles a forest of pines. The chopper fells trees from the same motive that the mouse gnaws them,to get his living. You tell me that he has a more interesting family than the mouse. That is as it happens.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“I acknowledge that the balance I have achieved between work and family roles comes at a cost, and every day I must weigh whether I live with that cost happily or guiltily, or whether some other lifestyle entails trade-offs I might accept more readily. It is always my choice: to change what I cannot tolerate, or tolerate what I cannotor will notchange.”
—Melinda M. Marshall (20th century)
