My aunt Elgie (aka Ethel Louise) at her college graduation from Wellesley with her grandfather Edward Cohen. When? Early 1950s?? She majored in Physics. As they said in those days: A really smart cookie! She worked in the early days of computers and also with NASA. She worked as many things!
I see it's been nearly 3 weeks since I've updated this. I will work on it!!!
I regret to report that my holiday lights have already stopped working:(
Oh, oh, I just found this the obituary of Barbara Davis, Elgie's cousin Barbara. They were nearly the same age. Once, when I visited, Cousin Barbara came over and gave me some small gifts. After that, she would call me regularly with updates. Then I didn't hear and Elgie said that Barbara was very ill. She really wanted to know what was going on. Begged me to find out. I called the facility but they wouldn't tell me much. Elgie mentioned her often when I talked to her; she was afraid that Cousin Barbara died. But I didn't know. They were the same age. I looked and found the obituary, she died Aug 29, 1994, just six weeks before Elgie. I wish I could have shared that with Elgie. Just the day after I visited her.
