"June 30, 1994: Met Tom and Merilyn at Wee Town. Then on to Fort Randall -- Howard and I with Raymond and Marina. Merilyn struck it rich -- got $2,500 on the poker machine. Nancy came in evening. On way home we stopped at Prenger's to eat.
July 1, 1994: Rose Thies died, funeral July 5."
I am not a pessimist by nature, but I am pretty sure I could play a poker machine for 15 years straight and not hit $2,500. I just don't seem to be that lucky. But, oh well.
I've talked before about visiting Rose Thies when I was a little girl. I always liked her. And so accordingly, here is probably the only photo I have of her.
