Good enough for who it's for
Aunt Cleo sent in this note from Carolynn Jean Schlichmann about Aunt Alma’s 100th birthday party. (At least, I’m assuming it was her 100th. I mean, she might have skipped one at some point, or had two one year. At any rate, it was the party celebrating the 100th year since Aunt Alma’s birth.)
In a little over a month, there is a 100th birthday part for Aunt Alma. This is the first time anyone in our family has reached the century mark (as far as I know).
The celebration will be held on Saturday, March 2nd at Trinity Lutheran Church in Jefferson City in the fellowship hall. The celebration will begin at 2:00 and go until 4:00. We’re not suppose to bring gifts, but if you want to send (or bring) a card, that would be fine. Her actual birthday is March 4th.
If you’d like to send a card before, Aunt Alma’s address is:
Alma Goldammer Sommerer
Jefferson City Manor Care Center
1720 Vieth Drive.
Jefferson city, MO 65109
Trinity’d address is 803 Swifts Highway, but I’m more used to coming in from the “school side” off of Stadium Boulevard. If you come in the back like I do, drive around to the front and the fellowship hall will be on your left.
If you have any questions about the celebration, post them below and we’ll try to find the answer. If you have a question, chances are that someone else is wondering that too.
There are two captions on the pack of this picture. One of them reads, “picture of a coo… like Grandmother… farm (Theresa Ea… Sommerer”. The picture had been cut in half, and half of the message was (more or less obviously) gone as well. The second caption reads, “this kitchen stove looks a lot like the one we had.”
Here’s another photo from Aunt Cleo. Maybe someone can tell us a little more about this…
The back of this photo reads:

Here’s another picture from Aunt Cleo. On the back of the photo it says, “this was taken in front of the gate with Seven Sister Roses.” But the gate looks different from the one I remember and the gutter (if that’s what it is) seems odd too.
Does anyone know what year this is?
Aunt Cleo sent me an envelope full of pictures a few days ago. Here’s the first one:
