It is someones birthday QUESS WHO?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY - June 29, 1944

"I was born in Memorial Hospital in Pawtucket, RI at 12:30pm. on Thursday, June 29, 1944. My mommy told me she was going to a movie and she knew I was going to be born and went to the hospital."

This is my Daddy, he was in World War II

I am only 2 and I am waiting for him to come home so we can play and he can hug me and hug me. I miss him so much and I know he misses me and Mommy, too.

" I am sitting on Mommy and Daddy's bed, so Mommy can tell me a bedtime story. I love stories read to me. We live in an apartment on 94 Warren Avenue in East Providence, RI02914. When my Daddy comes home we are going to go live in one of Nana's apartments down the road at 413 Warren Avenue. We will be all together there, Mommy, Daddy , and me"
Mommy , Daddy and I are a happy family

"This is my best friend, Diane, we are sitting on the step at my Poppy's house (Manuel Medeiros) on Broadway Avenue, East Providence, RI. We are waiting for Mommy to come home from work. My Aunt Isabel, who I have called Bobie is taking this picture. She and Poppy take care of me so Mommy and Daddy can work and make some money."

"This is my favorite picture, it was taken in Providence at the Loring Studio. I am 3 years old."

WHAT A WAY TO SPEND A HONEYMOON EVENING...

It had been a most wonderful memorable extremely hot 90 degrees Saturday, that June 28, 1969. The 11:00am wedding mass was at St Francis Xavier Church in East Providence with Father Rego and Father Diogo officiating. Following taking pictures at Slater Park in Pawtucket, RI, we gathered family and friends to the Falstaff Restaurant in Seekonk, Ma.

We were scheduled to leave the Warwick Greene Airport on American Airlines at 7:00pm for a flight to New York city to meet the Franconia Cunard line ship to go to Bermuda for our honeymoon. At about 9pm we were still flying in the air actually flying in circles. and hovering over New York city Laguardia Airport. We told the crew that the ship was leaving at 10:30pm and we were going to miss their departure if we did not land soon. they allowed us to talk ship to shore with the Captain of the liner. He told us that he could wait until 11pm, the latest, so he would not disrupt his schedule. Our luggage was red tagged, so we would be the first to get off and a cab would be waiting to take us to the pier.

We held our breaths and prayed for a safe landing in time to meet this time frame, HOWEVER this was not going to happen... this was during the time the air traffic congestion was occurring.

Our American Airline could not get a clear for landing from the traffic controller, there were just too many planes in the air all waiting to land and they each had to wait their turn. As the time progressed to 10pm than 10:15, we knew we were staying in New York and not leaving with our ship to Bermuda.

When we eventually landed at 11:25pm we went to the American Airline office to request a solution to this situation. there I was in my purple going away outfit with hat and corsage sitting on my Samsonite luggage waiting for my new husband to return and tell me everything was all right. It was past midnight now and "what a way to spend our first night together married, our Honeymoon evening.

Resolution was that American Airline would fly us on Monday, June 30th to meet the ship docked in Bermuda. they agreed to put us up at the Lexington Hotel in NY City for Sunday, now June 29th , my birthday.

All in all it wasn't so bad. We spent our honeymoon in New York City and Bermuda; A strange occurrence though, my wedding announcement stated that we would be going to Bermuda with a short stay in New York,

BIZARRE AND WEIRD.......
