Three Immigrant Sisters


Anna, Lydia & Ruth


 This photo was taken about 1958/9 in front of my grandmothers home on Hollywood ave. in Chicago. I always remember Aunt Anna as a tall gal but my grandmother Lydia was right below her. The long skirt hides it just a bit. Grandma had rickets as a child and severe arthritis in her later years so her legs were quite bent. A cousin used to say "Grandma's legs are so bowed you can drive a truck between them!"

All gone many years now but still fondly remembered,
