Another picture I found from December 1953, when my dad, Frederick Henry "Fred" Pape (1929-2017) brought my mom, Geraldine Margaret "Gerrie" Guokas Pape (1928-2019) home to meet his family in Chicago, Illinois, around the time they were engaged to be married. Here they are sitting around a table and (I assume) playing poker, since I see some poker chips on the table near my dad (is he winning?). From left are Gerrie; my aunt and godmother Delores "Lorrie" Olker Pape (1929-2005), Uncle Bob Pape's wife (although in December 1953, they too would have been just engaged); Fred; my grandfather Paul Robert Pape Sr. (1896-1970) in the background; my aunt and Dad's sister Rose Mary "Moe" Pape Dietz (1931-2007); and my uncle James "Jim" Hedger (1933-2010), husband of Dad's sister Marilyn Pape Hedger.
