In 1934 our Dad left Utah and began managing a Karl Johnson store in Glendive, Montana. His brother Lorin was managing a Karl Johnson star in the neighboring town of Miles City and had secured the jobs for both of them. They were department stores and the brothers would later buy them and rename them Andersons.
We followed by train in May and I was 15 months and the depression was raging. We also had two older brothers Dick and Dave and Jeanne, Marilyn, and myself were always known as the Anderson Girls. Carole would follow in 1938 as another Anderson Girl.
The first picture was taken across the street from the first house we rented, right near the big bridge, and this was a sweet little park. Mom looks pretty classy in her Tam. And we were all well dressed.
The next picture is taken at Treeo, a senior residential home, in Orem, Utah. Jeanne has lived there about 8 years, I followed last year, and Marilyn joined us the first of June 2022.
