This photo is cropped from a picture of Edna M. (obit in 20060315) and Robert G. MacLea (obit in 20060316) on the occasion of their 50th wedding anniversary in 1988, the two having married on Christmas Day, 1938. I will post the full photo with my grandfather at a later date.

My grandmother was a wonderful, warm, affectionate woman, who in addition to her many other amazing qualities had a keen memory and an interest in her family and the family of her husband that were the foundation of my efforts to record our family history. Without her, a lot of what I've done would have been much more difficult, if not impossible. I think of Nana as our original family historian. I'll be posting more about Nana in the months and years to come. There's so much to write about! For now, I just wanted to put a picture of her out there where everyone can see her!

I miss you, Nana!
