<<<<<< I spent K-9 in
Cleveland area schools, all but one year in East Cleveland. I went to Rosell, Rosedale, Mayfair, Chambers, Caledonia and yes W.H. Kirk Jr High. for grades 8 and 9. We moved to Akron and went to J. R. Buchtel H. S., maybe just so I would meet Kathleen Nitz in my senior year., I was very fortunate going to excellent schools throughout. That includes OSU and UofA. These schools are not responsible for any careless writing and grammar errors. Strange as it might seem, years later I worked under the son of a different W.H. Kirk. |

| Isabel Hasting Sink Not sure who the two men are, partly because not sure this is a 1940 decade picture. | |||

<<<<<< Kathleen as a young Girl Scout. I do not know how long she was one. Also this picture could be a 1930 decade picture, but what is one or two years?! |
