With so much land and many family homes that made for lots of family fun. Cousins, aunts and uncles were often outside playing games, enjoying family dinners, barbecues and enjoying each other. The little ones called Marie "Aunt Ree". Aunt Ree would often hear the children playing outside and she would call to them playfully with her rendition of a loud "Tarzan Call".
Aunt Rae let the little ones make mud pies with the clay soil and she would bake the masterpieces for the children. Much to their delight!!
She was a wonderful baker and famous for her Dilly Bread.
