She had an impressive bell collection. An entire case full of them, in addition to the smaller display you see on the wall. Near the end of her life, I got her one that was decorated with an animal of some sort, liberated from a souvenir shop at the San Diego Zoo. It was dutifully delivered to her hospital bed in Georgia by her grandson and added to her army of ringers.
What a great christmas present discovering these….those photos take me back! She loved that little bell you know. I remember delivering it to her as she was laying in a hospital bed. I told her it was from you, though I left out the part about it’s “liberation”….haha. And you know, I’m still not sure why we stacked the saltines and snack crackers on the piano, but that was our thing….
I’m digging the new layout of your site, btw!
