Brent! |
1945… World War II ends, and our Duane Brent Anderson arrives on November 17 and comes home to 2608 Gramercy Avenue, Ogden. betokening the peace of a new era.
Brent and I are all the kids Pappy and Mammy ever had. I retain confused youthful memories of one subsequent miscarriage and Mammy’s sorrow at learning that we would have had a sister. At this point, though, as far as I was aware, it was all happiness for our little family. Not sure what I’m trying to read to my rather inert little brother. Doesn’t look like The Elephant’s Child. |
And here, in early 1946, he does appear to be enjoying the late-winter sunshine, in keeping with our Mammy’s outdoorsy principles. I don’t seem quite so sure. Also looks as if he has a sparkling new, white Tenda. |
