Deception Pass, August 1962: From left are Tom, Carl, Todd, Helen, Betty Levish, and Betty Lou Leavish. Betty was a Hallaway and is the mother of Betty Lou. The Hallaway family were friends of the Feltons when they lived in Indiana, but it may have been before then. Mom was a Felton.
This photo was taken at Grandma Moser’s home in 1967. From the left are Grandma Moser, Helen, Tom, Carl, and Todd. Based on my hairstyle, I believe this was before I was drafted. Grandma Hertha Hulda Steinke Moser lived in Snohomish and died the following year. Margaret Hegeman, a Moser family friend from Snohomish, took the photo.
This was most likely taken in Yakima for a First Baptist Church album in 1963 or 64. Mom was an active member of the church until her passing. From the left are Tom, Helen, Todd, and Carl.
This undated photo shows Mom and Dad, probably in 1945 or 46, at an unknown location. They were married in 1946, so it could be a honeymoon photo.
Didn’t every boy have a Radio Flyer wagon in 1950? And they were all painted red. I don’t know where this photo was taken, but I’m wearing earmuffs, and the shadows are long, so it was winter. It may have been in Pullman, where we lived while Dad was going to WSU. I also recall having the wagon when we moved to Yakima.
Yakima Herald-Republic article (circa 1966) “Jobs Many For Mother.” Mom was selected “Mother of the Year” by the Order of Foresters for her work in the “School for Retarded Children” at St. Michael’s Episcopal Church in Yakima. Notice that she is identified as Mrs. Carl Moser; this was Central Washington culture, as reflected in journalism of the day.
