Once upon a time there lived a little
girl named Marilyn. But that was once
upon a time.
Today Marilyn is (or would like to be)
everyone's fairy godmother. Kitten-like
and playful, she sees herself rather
grandly anyway. Still, she's apt to poke
fun at herself whenever she can. That's
just a "coverup" of sorts though because
the Marilyn I know takes herself rather
seriously. She's a strange mix all right,
as you'll see. In the meantime, please
journey with us back through memory
lane....
Born December 9th during the Great
Depression (1934) the second daughter of
Ethel and Wilbur. Her last name is French.
Just about everyone louses up its pronunci-
ation so we'll just skip it now.
Like all children should be,
she was protected against all manner
of evils and hardships endured by the populace at that time. She learned well and all her teachers helped build her resolve and faith.
Today... she's a formidable woman aging but wise.
(And STILL behaving playfully !)

Dad Hunting on Vacation, NY
Dad used to spend a lot
of time with us girls,
bicycling, roller-skating,
and taking long hikes in
the woods. He was an
ever-present influence. |

Marilyn at 9 Years Old
Only in later years did she
resemble her Mom.
This other photo on right should
never've seen the light of day! Marilyn clowning
without her uppers. Yuk !
You could meet her on the street today
and never recognize her (she HOPES
looking like this!) but given the right incentive,
she cleans up pretty well !(See below)

Such
Foolishness !
Ever the Ham!
Please indulge this buffoon a bit.
She took her own picture (above) with the new
video camera. Being just as comfortable without
teeth as with, she decided to
ham it up for the camera. The
poorly written text on the
photo just goes to show you that
she AINT
POIFECT YET ! |
