Sexy pose. Undated photo believed to be in the 1930’s. She was quite the looker in her day.
She lived 34,827 days. That’s 95 years, 4 months and 5 days.
Things I remember….
Friday and Saturday nights they were drinking beer with the neighbors in her back yard every weekend.
Going to her house when we needed money to go to the movies and getting change and Cokes and seeing the Marilyn Monroe calendar my uncle Dino had hanging on the wall in their rathskeller.
She went to Ray Rixman Dodge and bought a brand new Dodge Dart that was pink and black and white in color. Oh, she was a little drunk when she bought it and didn’t have a driver’s license.
Coming to our house and always trying to give me a kiss and me telling her to “Weave me awone”. (I had trouble pronouncing my L’s back then.) She got the biggest kick out of that.
More to come….
OooooOOoo…. Saucy Aunt Iva! Loooves it Jonco! <3<3
Jonco, she was very beautiful. It is wonderful that you’re sharing her with us.
What a nice idea. Thank you for sharing her life and your memories with us.
B&P is a very unique and personal little corner of the web.
I’m beginning to feel I’ve gotten to know your family and friends better than my own.
What a hoot! My kinda gal to hang out with. Thanks for sharing that with us, Jonco. Looking forward to hear more.
Thanks Jonco, I do enjoy the stories about her that you share with us.
I’m smiling at the memories you’re sharing of your Aunt Iva…I think it’s great too, that you’re sharing a little bit of her with us. Thank you!
She does sound like quite the character.
I, too, am glad you are sharing, Jonco.
WIHI?
It makes me very happy to hear about Aunt Iva. May she live on in spirit through all of us and by way of your stories and memories that you have to share. 🙂 (PS~ Aunt Iva should sooo have her own Category on Bits & Pieces…. hehehe)
That should be a vintage poster or something! 😀
Very touching post, Jonco…She is a real “pink and black” girl, alright…Positive thoughts go your way…
Wow she was a stunner.
Thank you for sharing….She was beautiful!
Whats amazing is that she has a color photo from the 30’s (as well as being quite the looker). I’m sure that was no small feat 80 years ago.
Thanks Jonco….nice 2 see what she looked like when
she was one Hot Babe!
Cool story, cool picture. Thanks for sharing!
Nice, thanks for sharing, she was very pretty.
It’s a beautiful photo Jonco. She looks like she has a lot of spark in this one.
A bare midriff in the ’30s!!! Risque!!! 😉
Thanks for sharing, Jonco.
Very sexy your aunt Iva! She looks like a movie star, and it is delightful to share so precious moments of her. Feel like she is a little bit my aunt, too… 🙂
