From Mom’s Diary… 1948 - February 8 - Buzz and Diamond


From Mom’s Diary… 1948
February 8 - Buzz and Diamond
 
Colleen and Buzz the Spring of 1948

Sunday, February 8:

Billy went to church. Leo’s came & he went after Bill. Had creamed chicken, noodles, ice cream for dinner. Pinned drapes up in P.M. Buzz & Colleen stopped on way to Perry to meet train. Took Leo’s car. Plymouth froze up last night really cold. Some diamond Bussy gave her. He got back early. Played cards after supper & then they left.


My comments:

Buzzy had been discharged from the Army in Seattle on January 7, the news article says.

Colleen was going back to Iowa City to school, I assume. They got married in June of 1948.



Families are Forever! ;-)
