[Leica] Impromptu portraits

[jmaddox01 at suddenlink.net (Jack Maddox)]

Peter,

I enjoyed seeing your mothers picture and am glad she is doing well. 
When you posted about your father passing and talked of your family's 
history I viewed your gallery photos of the 50's. My parents were from 
the same era. I return periodically to reminisce about that time. Give 
her my best and tell her that through your photos and the LUG people 
that she has never met wish her well. Also tell her that I think she is 
wrong about that being her bad side. It is a wonderful expressive 
photograph.

Thanks for showing

Jack
