(1966 January 11)
We had just sat down to turkey dinner and passed the rolls and Wardie tried his and it was pink. Heavens! His front tooth was coming out! So he and Marian repaired to the bathroom and when he returned, he was lithping as the other front tooth had come out previously, and it left quite a space.
Polly Kay (1904-1997) vividly and with humor describes her life in Richland Center, Wisconsin, in excerpts from letters to her son Skip written after 1949, including her 5 last years in an old folks' home.
