This snapshot of my dad and his family was taken in 1968, presumably in Long Beach, California.

Back row, left to right: Tom Lind, my dad’s younger brother; William “Bill” Lind, their older brother; my dad, John Lind; and Art Reese, husband of Janet (Lind) Reese, my dad’s sister.

Front row, left to right: Dorothy, married to brother Tom; Phyllis, Bill’s wife; my grandmother, Jeanne Lind, then 83; and Janet Reese.

Janet was the youngest, and the last to pass away. She died in 2011, a year after my dad.
