| Notes |
Art and Helen used to go to Edith and Harry's home for New Year's Day dinners. She was an excellent cook and they were usually a bit hung over from the night before, but they didn't mention that because of Edith's firm religious convictions. When Edith first came over to this country, she was so lonesome that she would have physical fits that resembled seizures. In time she became a Christian Scientist. She used her faith to overcome this sickness. She did not believe in calling a doctor, but would rather rely on church people. She died with a cancerous growth above her eye and her husband Harry had stomach cancer and was in a lot of pain. After Harry died, Win and Werner talked about how they poured out all of the alcohol because Edith was so strongly opposed to it.
