Look Back in Time
This photo was taken in Stephenville Crossing on the west coast of NL in 1951. (L-R): James A. Alexander, our grandfather; our mom Bertha Johnson (nee Alexander); nephew Cecil White; Clara Alexander (nee Gaudet), our grandmother. Our mom, at the beautiful age of 90 years still resides in Whitbourne, in our family home since 1966. Mom married Dad, Richard Johnson (1931-2008) on January 17, 1952, in the Crossing as they said, while stationed on Harnum Field with the US Air Corp. Mom always said it was like the "An Officer and a Gentleman," when they met. Unfortunately, I do not know the names of the horses, but they were part of the family. Richard Johnson Bristol's Hope, NL
