If prodded she can tell you the most amazing stories about Brazil, Russian and Japan. A remarkable lady and I hope she stays with us long enough that her namesake grows up enough to know and remember her. Thanks again Howard Date: Tue, 17 Mar 2015 22:01:50 -0000 From: "Douglas Barry" <imra at iol.ie> To: "Leica Users Group" <lug at leica-users.org> Subject: Re: [Leica] Eloise She's a little dote. Well done Howard, going on my children's grandparents, I know you'll claim the credit for everything good about the baby :-) I also had a read about your other Elois. Interesting piece. Ironically, I went for a walk along Dun Laoghaire pier this afternoon with my brother and his wife Annette and they were talking about their trip to NY last week. Annette mentioned they had gone to MOMA and after a couple of hours of general wandering had asked an attendant where she could see Ansel Adams prints. The attendant apparently said something on the lines of "We have 75 exhibitions here, so I wouldn't know!" That comment doesn't gel with the ethos and committment that your Eloise expounded in her interview... Times change. Douglas
