Today, for some reason, I Googled your mother's name and found that she had died. She and I were good friends during our Freshman and Sophomore years in high school at St. Mary's Academy in South Bend, Indiana. Boarding school is an intense experience and our friendship was very special. I visited her family's home and remember combing through her mother's scrap books from her days as a Chez Adorable. We were very impressed! Much has changed since 1958, but your mother's cheekbones and her smile look the same. Condolences to your family.
