Edward Roberge - US Army
Edward Roberge (my dad) was stationed at Ft. Dix at the time this photo was
taken. He was honorably discharged from the army in the spring of 1948. He
came back to Rolette, North Dakota - met my mom, Loretta Bourassa, and within
six months they were married. I was born a year later, with six more children
to follow. Their first winter as a married couple recorded the largest amount
of snow in that area since snowfall records were kept. That was in the winter
of 1948-1949.
