My maternal grandfather took this picture of my siblings and me at their house in Quanah, Texas.
The picture was taken in 1958. My paternal grandfather made the flag quilt we are standing in front of. It has 48 stars.
I'm in the middle wearing my Cub Scout uniform. I'm a Wolf Cub Scout. My brother, Al, is wearing his Boy Scout uniform. He has the rank of Second Class. We both became Eagle Scouts.
