Family Photographs



My Mom, her friend Alice and Uncle Ralph looking rather raffish around 1943-44, I think.

Big News!


I report that Mark and Sarah are officially engaged! Their courtship took that turn this past Saturday in Boston. Mark's plan was elaborate beyond words. It involved surprising Sarah by having her picked up from work in a limo, thence being driven around town to several landmarks, at each of which she was greeted by friends and future brothers-in-law, a rooftop rendezvous where the ring was presented, and a late-night party at the Tavern on the Water (a stone's throw from Old Ironsides). Sarah was absolutely floored, and everyone's excited! After she sufficiently decompresses, they'll set a date. So there'll be more to come when I have it. Cheers! Harry
