Blank.

This is our first meeting on the ship!  Yvonne, Frans' wife took the picture!  They came to the ship to meet me and the Captain happened to be standing at the gang plank.  Frans asked for me and the Captain took them into the lounge and sent someone for me in the restaurant on the ship!  Talk about being happy after so many years and finally getting to meet someone you had written to so long ago!

Here we are at Frans' house, finally meeting after 58 years!

This is Frans and myself checking out his old picture album that his Uncle Anthony had put together years ago.  It included several pages of photos we had sent of the farm in Pecatonica, Illinois.  Many had farm animals such as pigs and horses and of course, myself doing things one does on a farm, like riding my pony and fishing!
