Finally met my goal

Spring of 2014 I set of goal of finishing my mother Joyce Morrison Lund's life history. Many things got in the way. The biggest being my cat! Oreo helped me delete much of the story up to the parts that I remember ( so all of the family history AND  youth my my mother ) One day while typing along on my tablet the cat stepped and deleted and then I deleted ALL  my work. Upset! but then I found my mothers 1939 - 1940 diary, This filled in the spaces that I knew nothing about. Yesterday I visited my Aunt Jean to ask final questions on their junior high years. Sadly Jean did not remember must, She is 88 years old and like my mother before she died, has dementia. She did remember her mother Celia when I showed her photos. She did not know which twin she was in any of the photos, but most of ALL she remembered going to church, Relief Society, Visiting Teaching, and that Celia worked at the Daughters of the Utah Pioneer building. She still has her quick and ready smile. I love her and Love and Miss my mother.  What did I find out about their teenage lives....???
