Onu Oscar Von Burg ja tädi Dorothy Von Burg nee Mosblech olid mu vanavanemate lähimad sõbrad. Grandma Ellis and Aunt Dorothy were sisters separated in age by about a year and a half.

Kui olin kasvab, Olen tihti kuulnud vanaema Ellis, Alvina M. Mosblech Ellis, rääkida oma kaks kadunud õde. Ta kaotas oma vanim õde Margaret ja tema väike õde Loretta enne oma 40. sünnipäeva.

Mu vanaisa rääkis mulle, et ema ja vanaema on lähedased. Hea vanaema võib olla väga kangekaelne, nii vanaisa kasutada saata ema temaga rääkida umbes läheb arsti, jne. Ma lasen ema räägib sulle vanaema oma sõnadega. Caroline paremini tuntud kui Lee oli naine enne oma aega. Sisse
