How funny that the family rumor said Mom was adopted. Grandma Maude
and Grandpa Joe were married in 1924 I think... have to recheck...
and Mom was born in Hawaii in 1930. Grandma and Mom travelled with
Joe while he was touring in the Navy- Tsingtao, Singapore, Manila and
Hawaii. Mom and Grandma came back to San Diego around 1935, and I
think Joe's letter says that they separated around 1937. Didn't get
divorced, and that's how Grandma got his pension after he died in the
prison camp at Fukuoka Japan March 18, 1945.
Suzanne also sent me some more pictures to post, so I've put those below.

Due to my lack of expertise in using the computer, I'll put the rest of the photos in the next entry.
