Don’t forget that you can reserve places at Heit’s Point now (and/or say what meals you will be attending). Click on the “Reserve a Spot” picture to the right
I believe my Mother, Lillian H. Sommerer Kuegele, is in the back row between the two boys. She has her hands folded in front of her. It does look like Uncle Felix kneeling in the middle row-center. My guess for Uncle Bud, is the lad to the far right with the hat. Thanks to whom ever sent in this photo.
Viola Erhardt back row left. Norma Erhardt front, fifth from the left. Elizabeth Sommerer on the other side on the tall boy from Lillian.
Just talked to Grandma Margie.

Other info from Margie:
Bud lost his hair about age 10 or 12, and he was probably about 13 in the picture.
Dad was the president of the school board.
Elizabeth got teased about liking Edward, and Lillian got teased about liking Leonard.
Margie thinks the teacher may be the one who made her stand in the corner all day for refusing to repeat “There is no such word as ain’t.”
“They are nice country kids, and not all as stubborn as I was.”
Wow, that is great!
That is great that you got this info from Margie. Our siblings are just adorable in this photo. They could be the Walton’s!!
Thank you Leanne, I am so glade you did that. Did Pearl not start school the same year that Margie.I think they graduated together.
