- I believe this was taken during Evelyn’s year of college at Cape. No info on the two young women with her (front, left).
- Evelyn is on far right. All we know is the month/year. Again, I think this was taken in Cape Girardeau, MO.
- Southeast Missouri State Teachers College, Cape Girardeau, MO (1943) Part of physical education class.
- Since Evelyn is not in the photo, I’m assuming she took it. It would be another year before the end of WWII. A different world.
- Probably 1943 or 1944. Check out the sneakers.
Some of my most treasured photos are of my parents when they were young. I’ve shared photos of my father from his Navy days I recently discovered some of my mom I don’t think I’ve posted.
She grew up on a farm near Broseley, Missouri, and attended one year at Southeast Missouri State Teachers College (as it was called in those days). Not sure why she didn’t finish but she always spoke fondly of that time in her life.
