Great Aunt

This is my Grandfather's sister (Julius Sr.). Only heard wonderful things about her from my father (Julius Jr.). He spoke highly of Emma, Pearl, and his Grandmom Irene. Although, I only met my Grandfather (Emma's brother) 3 times that I can remember due to the long distance from Maryland. My dad has very fond remberance of her. I wish I would have been able to meet her. My Dad has told me stories about waiting for the Ice Cream man at like midnight going through the alleys and people soaking in their pools due to the heat in the summer in Baltimore, and the Donut delivery guy before the sun would come up. Seems to make his heart smile when he talks about them.
