Sentimental Sunday: Silver Jubilee, June 1974

I just got back from a trip to my parents' (both 81) home, where my maternal aunt (80 in September) was visiting. While there I scanned over 100 old family photos! This is just one, from said aunt's silver jubilee (25th anniversary) as a nun, in June 1974, in Houston, Texas.

Standing are my brother Brian, uncle Charles Guokas III and his wife Barbara, sister Karen, me, brother Mark, and dad Fred Pape. Seated are my great aunts Elizabeth "Lizzie" Guokas Sayers and Edith Wolfe Brown, my aunt Sister Jean Marie Guokas, my maternal grandmother Sara Wolfe Archibald, and my mother Gerrie Guokas Pape. My sister Mary is kneeling in front.
