Grandma's Picture


Mom was a special assignment RN in Hawaii. She was taking care of the Governor's son. Hawaii was a US protectorate when they were there in the late thirties.
I do not remember her ever saying what the son was ill with but it was a short term assignment, less than a year.
The picture was taken in front of the house where Dad and Mom lived in Hilo.

Dad preached on Sundays to the plantation workers on the windward side of the island. During the week he witnessed and taught Bible Study classes to the US sailors stationed in the islands.

Dad knew some of the sailors that were at Pearl Habor when the Japanese bombed.
