I don't know how old he was at the time. He was never very old. He passed away when he was 65.
This is a picture of my mother. She's leaning against a wooden fence that fenced in our backyard. The fence was replaced shortly after this picture was taken. It appears that the fence was about to collapse to time. Perhaps my mother was just holding up the fence and the house behind my mother is I know a house from the civil war days. Actually, that house was built prior to the civil war.
This is a picture of a class reunion, high school class reunion. We graduated high school in 1939. I don't recall what year this was taken. There were about 73 students in our graduating class. And we always had pretty good turnouts. I think there were a lot more present than those that showed up to have their picture taken with this group.
