Great Grandmother Mary (dad's side)

(much procrastinated post by your mother! From Annie...)
Dear Roman and Zoe,
October 21, 2009

It was never intended to be such a long gap between ‘Christmas Nostalgia’ and this continuing history of your Great Grandmother E. Mary B. However,‘event’s intervened but now, let us continue:

The last entry had a photo of E. Mary and myself dressed nicely for Christmas. Remember it for comparison with the first one below!

Please remember that when you look at this next photo of us taken when we were trying to scrub and clean the front porch of the house on Pleasant Row in Cuba!

Cinderella to Princess

The second picture of your beautiful Great Grandmother E. Mary was taken as she came to Cuba to be a bridesmaid for her good friend (all of her life) Betty Q.
E. Mary had married Morrie and was then living and working in Chicago. This was approximately 1948.
