This doll has been in our family for a long time now.
When we were little, our father had TB and was in the Sanitorium (Sand) for long peroids of time. It was hard times for my family and money was very slim. Anyway, one Christmas our parish priest Father Kennedy brought a lot of things to our house and this doll was among them.
Us girls spent many hours playing with her. She had beautiful red hair and eyes just like marbles.
My mother cherished the doll and tried to take care of it. She passed away a while ago, so my sister Mary took it and took care of it, and when she passed away, I took it and still have it today.
I had this crib made for her and it is beautiful.
The doll brings a lot of happy memories to me of a time when our family was so less fortunate and a kind-hearted priest who helped us.   Submitted By: Bernadette Carew
