(1980 memoirs)
The fraternity brother explained: "Kay? Say, he may not go himself, but he sure knows how to get it ready. He hires the hall, the band, arranges for the eats. And everything is always good!"
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.
