I hope you enjoy this story. I have been asked numerous times why I didn't name the characters. I believe that by not naming the characters each storyteller can insert their own names to make it personal to each family. When I would tell the story to my daughter, I would name the characters that were personal to me. So, I am asking each storyteller to come up with your own names to make it personal to you and yours. Thank you for sharing this story with your family and loved ones.
