RECOLLECTIONS OF MY MOTHER

My mother was vigorous, an excellent cook and housekeeper, loved to work in her garden, and did not smoke, drink or have love affairs. For a while when I was very young she worked as a saleslady in Merton's dress shop on Broadway near the corner of Brand Boulevard in Glendale. For the most part, though, I remember her being at home when I left to go to school; she was always there when I arrived home again waiting for me with milk and cookies, and there were always cookies by the bed at night as well; she said prayers with me at bedtime and taught me to recite "Now I lay me down to sleep...., and God Bless...." She always awakened me with a joke on April Fool's Day: "Gene, get up! Come and see! There's a bear in the yard. There's snow in the yard...." whatever. I always fell for it. She was not interested in PTA, was never a Den Mother, nor did she have many, if any, activities outside her home. She was the one who taught me how to drive a car, took me to the DMV for my driving and written tests, made sure that I got a new outfit of clothes every spring, and went with me to church on Easter Sunday. Most of what I learned as a child I learned from my mother
