What a beautiful photo.
Is she missing her left arm or is it just not in the sleeve?

Ray must have been in the military while the rest of his family was in prison camps.
What a shameful time in our history and yet they came back to Hood River to be the backbone of our orchard industry.
What a handsome couple.

Dorothy is alive and very well at 98! Their son Gordy is still running the orchard and is devoted to his mom.
Kyle
Gorgeous couple.

Is Ray the one who drover a yellow Cadillac and always hada cigar in his mouth and hit every yard sale?

Wonderful image. I can see where Gordy gets his good looks and snazzy dressing!
