I never realized George Smathers was that much younger than brother, Frank!

I was good friends with Frank when he had the house across from the Montgomery Foundation in the corner of Red Road and Old Cutler. George had a unique way of word phrasing, practically a whole language to itself full of double meanings. I have a great photo of my Aunt with her high school class on the US capitol steps, with George sitting by them.

Your aunt was part of Miami High's Class of 1932? So was my grandmother. I have her yearbook from her senior year at Miami High.

My Aunt graduated Edison in '53. I am not certain when the photo was taken but I am glad to share it with you if there is a way to do so. Lots of other people, including at least another politician in the photo I would love to identify.

Do you have it in digital format? If so, you can e-mail it to me.

I will give that a try now, oh yes I put it in digital awhile back.

I think you have my email address. If not, let me know.
