"Attached is a picture I found in an old family album that was taken in front of our Dale Gardens home in the spring of 1943. I think the woman on the left is either Mrs. Korodi or a Mrs. Mintz. If it is Mrs. Mintz, the little girl is her daughter Adele, one of my playmates; if it is Mrs. Korodi, I don't remember whether she had any children. The woman on the right is my mother, Helen Carp, who passed away in 1999 at age 88. Sitting on the fence, looking at my mother, is my brother Joel (who now lives in Portsmouth, New Hampshire), and I am sitting in front of him, looking at the camera."
