Read about this series of posts, regarding items in a box originally owned by Belle (Lamunion) Fellows Tinker here. The cast of characters is located here. And, there is an accounting of people about whom I have little information here.

Love To Mom
on
MOTHER’S DAY
You’ve sewed a million buttons
And you’ve smiled a million smiles
You’ve washed a million faces
And you walked a million miles–
You’ve let me track
around the place
A million times a year —
And here’s a MILLION WISHES
For Your Special Day, Mom Dear.

This is a fairly modern card, so I think it was sent in the late 1930’s or early 1940’s, after Frank and Lila’s son, Loren was grown and away from home.
