May 27, 1963 The Frances Hubbard Diaries

May 27, 1963
Monday, lovely day,  sunny,  68.  I did a big wash and plastered little bedroom.  David went to work with Clifton.  Wayne drove David's car to school.  Grandpa and Louise were here in am a few minutes.
Comment:  Grandpa was Elmer Gamalia Hubbard, born May 18, 1882 in Broome Center, married Agnes W Haskin in 1903 and had eight children:  Madaline, Merel, Clifton, Earl, Lorraine, Evelyn, Ina Belle, and Winifred.  Agnes died in 1946 of a heart attack.  Elmer died September 21, 1964 or about 16 months after this date at the age of 82.  He married Louise Ferris later in life, probably in 1961 or so when he was in his late seventies.  Here is a picture of him and Agnes.  He and Agnes sold what our family now calls Hubbard Hill to my mom and dad for one dollar on August 18, 1938, about a month before I was born........

You're always young in your mind it is said, No matter the face in the mirror, That you see with surprise then say to yourself, "What is that old man doing here?"
