Yes good old vera had a lovely personality.I could never understand when I was a child why somebody who I always knew as Vera buntz became Vera Lalley in 1939. But as an adult it became very plain.

Wow!! Just stumbled across this. Vera was my grandmother on my father's (Ray) side. Unfortunately she passed away a while back. Pat died unfortunately when I was only seven, although I do remember him as a very kind man.

My dad is still going strong...

Hi John, the little girl dressed as a queen in the front of the picture looks like Irene Pew, sad thing is, if it is her, she gave birth to me six years after the photo was taken, innocence doesn't last long.....
