The Good Ole Days

 My mother said he was the cutest baby. 


Robert was 8 years older than me, but he seemed to always be there for me.  He pulled me in a sled, made snow men with me, taught me to drive a stick shift and a canoe, sang with me, and loved to whistle.........................................................He wanted to be a brother in the catholic church, but the seminary said he was too shy. Then he went in the army and served in VietNam.............................In our little family band he played a lovely clarinet and I will always remember his solo in Caravan.  It was smooth and pure tone......I miss you big brother.  You were a giver.













 My mother made this pink dress for me in wool. It had scalloped sleeves and dress bottom.
