I do not believe that Virginia & I ever actually met. My Father's Aunt Louise (Urban) was employed for many years by Mrs. Reynolds , Virginia's Grandmother. When Aunt Louise came to visit us, many times she brought the most beautiful little girls clothing with her for me. They were from Virginia. She was four years older then me but I was short & meatier & she was tall & thinner. I could hardly wait for Aunt Louise to visit to see what new clothes I would get. Once when my Father drove Aunt Louise home, he returned with a children size picnic table for me. Guess who was the former owner ? I still have the bench that came with it. It stands at the foot of my bed where it has been for the last 30 years. I even have a couple of silver bangles that came once along with the clothing. I have never forgotten Virginia's generosity. I look at the bench in my room & know where it came from. Rest in peace, Muffin. I am, Ottie Mueller Kiss
