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 in the love of one’s family only that heartfelt happiness is known.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
“The family: I believe more unhappiness comes from this source than from any other—I mean the attempt to prolong family connection unduly, and to make people hang together artificially who would never naturally do so.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
“Parenting is not logical. If it were, we would never have to read a book, never need a family therapist, and never feel the urge to call a close friend late at night for support after a particularly trying bedtime scene. . . . We have moments of logic, but life is run by a much larger force. Life is filled with disagreement, opposition, illusion, irrational thinking, miracle, meaning, surprise, and wonder.”
—Jeanne Elium (20th century)
