She can be seen on the top row of the photos on this page -- lots of dark hair and very attractive. I miss her very much.
There is another cousin on this page as well -- Teddy Giles -- the last row, last photo. We lost him in the recent past -- he was a really good guy and I am so glad to have become re-acquainted with his kids -- family bonds are very important.
So, Happy Birthday, Aunt Linnie!

Hey, that's right -- today would have been her birthday! Hard to believe she's been gone that long. Is that photo from her senior year?
I'll bet she was a wonderful aunt - with "having fun" as her hobby, she would be fantastic!
JLSHall -- yes, I think so -- 1945. I know, it seems like a lifetime ago, doesn't it?
Mary -- yes, she was. She was so glamorous! She was a buyer for several large department stores and she would go to New York on buying trips and bring us all sorts of stuff -- "us" being JLSHall and me. She wore gorgeous clothes, I remember her showing me the little chains sewn into the Chanel suit jackets. I remember what I now know as Prada shoes and the fragrance she wore stays with me to this day. She was my mother's baby sister -- there were three girls -- and they all had very strong personalities. They were all pretty, fun and....you didn't want to anger any of them. I am not a thing like them -- LOL!!!!
It's wonderful how those who have gone before us never grow old. What a glam photo--just love the hair and those of her classmates. She would've had superstar status in my book too--although at my age now, clothing's all about warmth and comfort: no fashion happening here anymore ;).
Lovely tribute.
Also love the banner at the top of your page.
