"Did you know that your (great) grandmother did not go by Sarah, but was called "Carrie" which was apparently a nickname for Catherine? She was so tiny.... My first visit to the ranch was when I was 8 yrs. old - summer of 1937. Your (great) grandfather (William Frey) was very hard of hearing, so he was fitted for a hearing aid by a traveling salesman. Nothing fancy. There was a metal bandeau to go over the head with a receiver to be positioned on the bone behind the ear. The bone conducted a magnified the sound. Anyway, he decided that I did the best job of helping him get it positioned just right, so all summer he would call for "that kid" to find and adjust his hearing aid. My Rupp family came the summer of 1940.
