I'll never forget Easter 1946. I was 14, my sister OSU 12, and Darlene 16. We lived with mother. My father died five years ago leaving us. By 1946, my sister got married. A month before Easter the pastor announced the collection of donations. We decided to buy 50kg of potatoes for a month. We love this $ 20 and also save on electricity.For 15 cents you could buy the cotton and sell for$1.We had earned another$20.Near the Church gathered 80 people. At the grocery store, we exchanged our money and poyehali home to show their parents. We were so excited that could not sleep. We had$ 70 for donations. Sunday it was raining as we walked to the Church shoes Darlene broke up. When the donations were accepted, mom gave us$ 20. After Church we sang the whole way. We ate eggs and fried potatoes. In the evening we drove up to the car and gave my mom the envelope. There were three crisp $ 20 bills, one$ 10 and 1$ bills.
