Feeling somewhat emotional today.....probably from spending the afternoon sorting through dad’s papers. Looking at his handwriting, photos, notes he had written to himself. How cool, though, that I came across his birth announcement. William Francis was born on June 20, 1939 to George and Helen Maier. He weighed 9 and 1/4 pound. That is one big baby……especially for 1939! Sign in to see full entry.
