I was hoping to find a Father’s Day Card somewhere in my great grandmother’s collection but had no luck. I did, however, find this lovely page in her daughter’s autograph book. Her daughter, Georgiana Frances, was nicknamed “Georgie” when she was young. Georgie’s father, Mary’s first husband George Schenk, died on October 31, 1915, when Georgie was only 14 years old. Seven days before he died, he signed her autograph book. He had been sick for two years with tuberculosis so it seems quite likely he knew he was dying when he penned this note. He was only 38 years old.
