(1980 memoirs)
While living on Ruepings' Estate, my brother and I often played Hide & Seek with the Rueping kids and their friends. One summer night Boobie and I were kneeling behind a bush when he gave me a very sweet kiss and said, "You're my girl now, Carrie. Will you write to me when I go away to school in the fall?"
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.
