A note from Edna Schleede

My remembrance is of the first time your father brought your mother home to Kingston. Your mother was a sorority sister of Aunt Sue's and one weekend her brother John came for a visit to Valpo. Sue got Linda to be his date and he fell Hard. He had not been a big ladies man up to that date, but was bound and determined to win her heart.

After resisting she finally gave in. She was a little frightened to meet us (she told me later) but with Grandpa and me it was love at first sight. She was pretty, polite and best of all a MISSOURI SYNOD LUTHERAN!
