Pietrovito brothers with Mrs. Magness 1930
Carole W. Troxler
January 3, 2011
I talked by phone with Mr. Pietrovito and his brother Jerry concerning a biography I am researching on a lady with whom they lived in 1930. They were most kind and encouraging. Please accept my condolences. Today I found a photograph in the lady's papers in which all three boys are shown with her and her son. It was a suprise to me. The grown man is Scott Magness, son of Mrs Sallie Stockard Magness. One of the four boys is Dickey Lundtrom; this from a lable on the snapshot. Jerry, Daniel and Allia are there. All the best wishes to the family.
