I would like to post a picture of Mama we have not all seen 100 times but I do not have any...I noticed in this one today, Debby Lee had her hand on Mama. She did not show affection to Mama often. Maybe she was just steadying herself but she could have easily leaned on Daddy's arm in this picture. This was taken the summer Mike and I got married ,1972. My Mother liked Michael.
I remember when we first got a telephone. I think I was in 7th or 8th grade. Mama was in Hog Heaven. This was the first time she really had a lifeline to the outside world. It was a party line, Lovetta, the Norton's, the Newberry's and maybe the Morris's were all on our party line and Mama used to ease drop on them. She never had anyone to tell what she heard, except us, but she loved listening to everyone. I would come into the house and she would have her hand over the phone speaker and motion for me to be quiet. Maybe the Peden's were on there too. It was a great thing for her to have. She got to talk to Aunt Francis every day and Edna Parker often. She called Grandma Gaddy every once in a while.

Momma liked Mike and she liked Larry also. I think she thought they would take care of us...
Just noticed Momma had her purse...she was going somewhere? To your wedding? Her hair is in rollers also sign she was traveling.
