My Direct line of Munshower's

My Dad, Ernest Sylvester Munshower this picture was taken when he retired from Pennsylvania Electric in 1964.

 

I received this photograph in 2007 from my former wife Debbie Lynch who received it from Mary Dee Schweppe. Mary Dee has been a friend of mine since we were kids. We believe this photograph is of my Mom when she was installed as the President of the Ladies Auxiliary to the VFW.
