I should have included cigarettes. I don’t smoke now, but I was a pack a day smoker then. I don’t remember for sure, but I think I still had cigarettes even though I had no food.

So now you know the whole truth (at least until I remember more).

As I posted there, my siblings and I had the opportunity to talk to the students who had learned anatomy from Mom.

Many years ago, Mom played an important role in the growth of the Northern Indiana Arts Association (now South Shore Arts) as Membership Director and as President.  (Mom was an amazing woman).

It turns out that one of the students had won blue ribbons in several art shows, enjoyed many theatre productions and won a scholarship to take an art class at the Munster Performing Arts Center, a terrific facility that might not exist if not for Mom’s efforts in the early history of the organization.

A small world.
