More 1940s Hon family photographs

Here is an assortment of family photographs from the 1940s in the back of the album and Mom's wallet. I've put them in chronological order.

Mom and Aunt Evie, spring 1942

same day same family car, Mom and Uncle Paul, 3rd St. Duluth, Spring 1942

Uncle Paul, Oct. 5, 1942, his wedding day. Mom has a note about him being the better half, according to Aunty Evie.

Aunt Evie and Uncle Paul in uniform, "taken in Florida, 1943"

Mom being goofy in a store photo booth photo, 1945. She looks so happy, healthy, and pretty.

Very hard to see in this poor quality photograph, but it is a friend and Uncle Carl (on the right), in uniform, in Korea, 1946

James Francis Hon, 1947

Uncle Paul's family in 1947, Ron, baby James,  and Aunty Evie

A Hon family lineup without Uncle Ed in it. Maybe he took the photo. From the left:

Uncle Paul, Uncle Carl, Mom, Aunty Phyllis, Aunty Frances (behind Grarndpa's shoulder), Grandpa and Grandma Hon. Mom listed their ages, her's was 24, so that dates the photograph to 1948.

"'We Three Dolls' Mother and I sharing a pair of gloves, April 1949"=Grandma Hon, Aunty Phyllis and Mom all dressed up very smartly, probably for Easter Sunday.

Aunty Phyllis, 1949. The dress is described on the back of the photograph as "a formal worn to two recent school concerts, white organdy and green check gingham." That would have been pretty with her red hair and porcelain redhead complexion. I wonder if she sewed it herself. She was quite the seamstress. Whenever she came to visit us, she and Mom would adjust patterns and sew together.

This is the last photo from Uncle Cliff, Mom and Aunty Frances' 1948 trip to Chicago. Sorry I missed including it with the last blog entry. Mom noted "Waiting in the sun for the bus back to the loop. Quite a ride about 25 minutes. So tired we're silly." You can see them joking around and Aunty Frances is laughing. You can just hear her cracking up. I love it!
