Artist Mother Age 17

Description

Colored B&W Photo
10 x 8"
1944

She died last March, 2009. A total shock. Was in perfect health. Still mowed her own lawn. Drove her car. Did everything for herself and others.

Never smoked or drank. So much for that propaganda.

Who has a mother who, at age 17, joined the Army Nurse Corps during WWII?

This should piss off the likes of the indoctrinated types [link] But I forgive that person because of her young age.

My mother was not someone I loved later in life. She did not welcome me home from Vietnam. But she was a great lady. She was incapable of ever telling a lie.

She did love me. About time I give her credit. She worked 40 years at HSSE (Humanities, Social Science and Education) at Purdue University as the one who was counted on for balancing the budget every year.

Miss you Mom.

Love,

Chuck
