@ossobuco,
Some photos.
I tried to post these before and froze my computer, but that is on this end.
Anyway, my parents in the thirties -
my father is on the far left.
My mother is second from the left.
Mildred (who lived with her husband in the same building we did in NYC in '50 and whose shoes I used to parade around in) is on the far right.
These photos are from California.
I'm going to post these one at a time, given that they all gave up the ghost last time I tried.
I wasn't born yet then.
