Hi All, I was happy and surprised to see the photo. But it is so black in the newspaper copy. The only other newspaper photo I ever saw of my dad was his mug-shot in 1932 :). My grandmother died in 1964 a age 86 and my dad in 1965 at age 63. I barely knew them.  I took Peggy's advise and wrote to the Times Picayune city desk this morning for advise. Fingers crossed, Sally ________________________________ From: Kathleen Deao <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Mon, September 20, 2010 8:05:28 PM Subject: Re: [LAORLEAN] Original Photo Doin' the happy dance with you, Sally!
