Inherited Things

I had a friend many years ago who was a Christian mentor to me. She passed away about 10 years ago and left me all of her Christian books and textbooks, her cedar chest, all her family photos and ephemera. More than money or clothes or any other "useful" thing I could have been given - these things have meant the most to me. I'm scanning some of these items today in order to share not only the person I remember, but an era of gentility that is gone.

First, here is a Certificate of Health for LaVerne when she was in 4-6th grade. What odd wording on the certificate....

Next, a silly poem she saved - I don't know how old she was or who the person was that sent it....
