(1993 February)
The last thing [on the tour of the Schmitt Home]: over the front door hung a big carving about 2 X 3 feet out of one piece of wood, butternut, done by Roy Dingle, who has apple orchard you may recall. Just "Schmitt Woodland Hills." Beautiful. He used to call for me to go to a night class so I wouldn't have to call a cab.
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.
