My Cousins

28 Jan 2018 81
This morning, when I realised it was my cousin Rosanna's birthday, I went looking for an old photograph of her. I had scanned this negative, from 2001, a while back but had done nothing with it until today. Birthday girl Rosanna is on the left and her younger sister Shirley on the right. The two kids are Shirley's. We were at the grave of our aunt Rose and grandmother Rosanna for the annual "flower service" at that cemetery. The name Rose and its varieties (Rosanna, Rosalie, Rose-Marie, etc.) continue to be reproduced in my family line. Shirley, by the way, was named for another aunt in that family, who in turn was probably named for the film star, Ms Temple. This was Tri-X in my Minolta Hi-Matic. I owned several Hi-Matics over the years, but I think this was the Hi-Matic F which I liked so much I went on to get other models.
