was Hester Elizabeth Armstrong Cunningham. She had a daughter, Willa Dadine Cunningham, born by a previous marriage. She, Willa, was six months older than me, being born March 23, 1917. Our first home was on West Jefferson in Los Angeles. Our second home was at 551 West 41^st Drive near Exposition Park in Los Angeles. This is where I started kindergarten. Willa and I were so near the same size everyone thought we were twins except she had blond hair and mine was dark brown. We girls had lots of fun together and with our older brother Danny.

Mother and Daddy were married March 31, 1923

Our first Christmas together we girls each got dolls and doll buggies and among other things, Danny got a train. We were playing and we girls had to cross the R.R. tracks and Danny's train hit one of our buggies and broke it's headlight - he was heartbroken and we girls felt terrible for there was no way to replace the headlight that day.

We went to see our grandparents each week, which we looked forward to, and in the summer time we'd spend a week or two with them. They were so good to us and like all grandparents, spoiled us with the foods we liked and little gifts when we'd go shopping. Grandpa made the best homemade root beer ever!
