This was taken about 1947.  Left to right it is John, Mariellen, My Uncle, Jim Steindle, Myrtle Steindle (Welsh), and Herman Steindle.  Herman married Myrtle after Harry died.  Jim is about 12 here.  He was a fun Uncle who was as much a child as I was when I was one.  He is the child of Herman and Myrtle.  He died sometime in the 1970s.  Herman was a German butcher whose breath perpetually smelled of beer and cigars.  He used to hold me in his lap and always called me "Muscles".  He died about 1954.  Look at the smiles on Myrtle and Mariellen.......
