(Lyndon 8)
You can see where the discipline was seated in our family. My father liked above all harmony, love for each other, pride in achievement. My mother was for Truth, perfection, sticking it out, love of God, and of course she loved us too. But we often forgot that because she was stern and always demanding our best.
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.
