In reply to Margaret. Unfortunately, I am unable to cover every aspect of his life in my article. Glad you commented and offered a further explanation.

So disappointed that Ike’s boyhood religious experience and comments are limited and refer to his mother and his parents Jehovah Witness involvement which was later in Ike’s life. Ike’s family attended the Abilene Brethren in Christ Church when his parents moved to Abilene from PA. His grandfather and uncle were the pastors there. Ike attended Sunday School and activities there until he left for West Point. This denomination is a traditional peace church and so his parents and extended family embraced this faith tradition. He decided out of respect for his grandfather and uncle not to attend church there after leaving for West Point, although there is personal correspondance with the church much later than that time for his support and roots with the church.

In reply to Melanie Carver. We agree! It's one of our most precious attractions and contains an amazing amount of history.

We loved visiting the Eisenhower Museum. We had seen it in the past, so we can appreciate how well the redesign was done. This is a must see for every Kansan.

We didn’t realize that they had updated the Ike museum. It’s been years since our last visit, but now we see we need to plan another trip. Thanks for sharing.
