However, based on my Mother's memory, there are some corrections I would suggest: "Nona" - was my grandmother. Her given name was Leona, but since her mother in law and sister in law were also named Leona, I am guessing a nick name because a necessity. "Teddy" - was my Uncle Ted. His given name was Theodore H. "Viola" - is my Mother. Her given name was Violet Pearl. Also, please note the age of 8 should be 8 MONTHS, and not 8 years.
