we can be united with our families - this had a big impact on this little girl, Marjorie - who lost her mother at 14 months of age - that I could meet and get to know my mother - to know that Heavenly Father had restored his gospel to the earth again through a Prophet, Joseph Smith. This true church has so much more than any of the other church's I had attended. I shall always be grateful for "Dear Harriet."

We spent many wonderful hours, and years too, with Harriet and Gus and Jimmy and Catherine. Jimmy wanted to go to school with us girls but Catherine loved our brother Dan and she decided she'd go to high school with him. The children loved to come over to our house, they called mother and daddy "Lard's." Mother had a huge cookie jar and she kept it full of home baked cookies and all the little ones knew where "Lard's" cookie jar was and headed right for it. Harriet's family lived in Utah - her parents came down real often and brought us all those delicious Red apples. One of them could make your whole house smell heavenly. They were wonderful people and we enjoyed our get together's with all of them. At this time Herbert Hoover was our president.

Gus's mother (everyone called her Ma Roese) had a hamburger stand at Hermosa Beach right on the strand. In the summer Harriet would go down to help Ma for 3 or 4 days a week and she would take us girls and we'd babysit Jimmy and Catherine out on the beach and sometimes we'd help in the stand. It was neat to babysit and get a sun tan at the same time. We had fun and at the same time it helped Harriet and Ma Roese, who was a dear too!
