Questions/comments from Larry Liere (55): Devils Lake, ND & Mesa, AZ
Neola: I don’t know the Smith family but the Pritchard family that lived in Devils Lake were Catholic so if someone could contact them it may help.
Janice: All I can remember about the Lamoureaux girls are their birthday parties. In fact I can remember birthday parties at your place, Hosmer’s, Shelver’s, Grimme’s, and other birthday parties that I can’t put a name with for sure. As you may remember there were not may toys during WWII but our folks could always find something for a birthday party. It sounds as if you went to church with Ann so if she was Lutheran she would not be in the picture.
Gary: Did anyone ever contact Sister Sharon Houle about this picture?
Thanks, LARRY
Larry, I don’t have contact info for Sister Sharon Houle, but hopefully some of our readers do.I don’t think the Winthrop Smith family was Catholic, but I could be wrong. Gary

What business was this? Is this part of the Carl Myhre family from Rolette that has the bank? Gary
The Larry and Dick Conversation posted yesterday
Reply from Allen Richard (65): Midland, MI
The Larry and Dick conversation is hilarious! I wish I could remember 1% of the conversations (polite for BS) that Dick, “Blackie”, Kenny, Dad, Neil, Armand, Bill, Rolland, Keith, Ray, Freddie, Cliff, Darrell, Dallas, and a couple dozen others used to have at “The Gathering.” Those were good days.
So is the “napkin numbers game” still being played? I remember losing and breakfast costing me $22 back in the ’70s. Now you might get a couple beers and a small order of wings for $22.
