Another letter from Lois. Here’s to summertime, picnics, bicycle rides, baseball and horseshoes! Have a good one everyone.
Struthers Ohio
Book 1 – Letter 18 Received May 26, 1942 from Lois Jean
Another letter arrives from Lois Jean. You can see from this letter the war is close to home now as 90 boys from Struthers Ohio leave to join the Army with more to leave later and some already there. According to the internet the town of Struthers at that time was less than 12,000 people so this had to have had an intense impact on the community.

The next letter from Lois includes a picture. How nice to put a face with the name. As a side note I got a very nice letter from Lois a couple of weeks ago. She is 88 years old and still lives in the same house! I can hardly believe that I am corresponding by letter with one of my Aunt’s favorite pen-pals. More on that later…
