Emilia memoir of relatives

Aunt Emilia

By
Taken from my mother’s memoir, We Were Not Spoiled, this excerpt is a memoir of relatives and the hardships they endured. (The numbers refer to footnotes below.) Ma Tante Emilia Verrault Lessard and Mon Oncle Louis Lessard[1] both worked and, since they had no children to spend their earnings on, they had more disposable income than my parents. They would drive up from New Auburn in a little Ford that had a square back, but it had no rumble seat[2]. Since my family did not have a car, having them show up in their Ford was special to us.
