Happy Easter - in 1968!



My family at Easter in 1968, which was April 15 that year, probably in the backyard of the home of my maternal grandmother, Sara Melzina Wolfe Guokas Archibald (1907-1997), at 1118 Bay Oaks in Houston, Texas.  Standing in back are my maternal aunt Sister Jean Marie Guokas (1930-2024), my mother Geraldine Margaret Guokas Pape (1928-2019), and my father Frederick Henry Pape (1929-2017).  In the middle are my sister Karen and me, and in front are my three youngest siblings, Mark, Brian, and Mary.  We girls are all wearing dresses Mom made for us.
