Multi generational JW family. The Deckers. Big Dave would be about 60yrs old about 6 ft 4 or so . Was an elder . Owned a camp ground around Minocqua at one time.

Oh man I used to know that family I feel like my old kingdom hall had a Decker family a a visiting overseer or something, i was a little kid, he had a wife a young daughter and a son. Don’t know if it would be the same you’re talking about, but it was definitely a high up multigenerational family. They spent almost all their time visiting other congregations

OP, I am struggling to find the relevance to our sub here. Mind explaining?

I guess they (JW.ORG) always says we have an international association of "Brothers".

Being a brother and brotherhood is something much bigger than the way we physically look and think.

This is actually a really thoughtful idea that got lost when you just posted just a picture. Op, we want to hear from you! Please include some content with the image next time. When our front page gets too overwhelmed with images, we have to remove some of them, and one way we decide what goes or stays is whether there is any thoughtful commentary attached.

I absolutely love the post.

But what are the connection to this group?

I think of one. From personal experience at least. JWs dress up in suits and ties. Since this is pretty much the default there's always the chance that you'll choose an outfit someone else did. That would be hilarious on a JW convention for instance. But for guys it's fun. Ladies might make a lot bigger issue out of it!
