In the pix at Marion, did you identify us in the stands watching the "review"? Daddy was on the next to top row, I was behind him in the sunglasses and Mila beside me. On the row with Daddy were Bill Vann, across the street neighbor, Pat Davis and Dale Ezzell; I think Sid Brannon was beside Mila. Sid also graduated with Bill, Mila and Alicia. Couldn't find Mother, but you know I've told you she did not like her picture taken.

I did date (for a short time) one of the assistant coaches at Marion; his name was Al Cate and is the one Dinah described. This was after I went off to college; he was young, but older than I and Daddy and Mother thought a lot of him. Anyway, didn't last long; I was at Samford.

Gotta go,

Aunt Marilyn
