These are some of my memories of Uncle Joe & Aunt Kate. Technicaly they are my Grand-Aunt & Grand-Uncle. Because Aunt Kate's sister Margaret is my grandmother, garmdmother-grandaunt. Get it? Uncle Joe smoked cigars & had a deep voice. I always saw him in his chair reading the newspaper & smoking one of his cigars. It never fails when I can smell a cigar around me it brings back those memories. Aunt Kate helped me do my first sewing project. An apron for myself to complete a Girl Scout badge. She gave me a gift of a small doll dress for my doll. She put my name on it in a pink heart. I still have that dress & plan to hand it down within the family. I remember that at one time they lived up near the Pink-Sisters near O'Fallon Park. It is a Cloistered Convent & Chapel in St. Louis. I would bike up to visit the church. It is a very beautiful building, and the peaceful feeling was overwhelming sometimes. Then I would stop off at their house & visit for awhile.
