Related by Marriage: A Visit from Ignas

Suburban Chicago, November 1965. Ignas, the brother of Mr. Irene's Dad, sits on the sofa with Mr. Irene and his Mom. Ignas lived in Los Angeles, so every visit from him was an occasion to celebrate.

Suburban Chicago, November 1965. Everyone is in the kitchen of Mr. Irene's childhood home. Ignas has brought a camera for Mr. Irene. Mr. Irene and his Dad watch as Ignas explains the camera's operation. Perhaps it is a spy camera!

(Mr. Irene and I still have that kitchen table.)
