Here is a photo of JHR's high school graduation, from Flushing High School when he was 16. He is in the back row, on the left. Happy Birthday again, Dad. We are getting ready to go back to CA to retrieve even more of your things that have finally been released from Elsa's estate. It tears me up every time we have to go through this. People out there: if you love your children do not make them go through this constant opening of the wound. My sister and I have also had our battles. I have found I can no longer trust her, and she may well feel the same of me. Whatever happens, I am done. This is the last trip for me. She can have it all. My health has suffered greatly over this and there is nothing I care to possess that is worth losing the rest of my family. Sorry kids, if there was a special something you wanted and I didn't get it, it is too bad. I'm done. As for the sale of JHR's possessions over eBay: it beats me. I was not aware of it until you brought it to my attention. Elsa was going to get these things done (like the collection to Ohio)and refused our help offered several times. I did hear that some collections were refused in this time of lower reserves to keep libraries afloat. Now that Elsa has been gone for more than a year, her executers are selling stuff off as quickly as they can. Belongings that are ours have been given away or sold. We were concerned that this was going to happen before Elsa died. She reassured us that it would not. We fought her legally and she still did not return his things to us. We were awarded everything he had prior to 1964. Everything. The polar stuff. The Lockheed papers. The family photos and papers. Some of these things we have received, but many others have been lost to us. Because my father raised me through my teens there were personal possessions left with him when I moved out and married. My personal art has yet to be been returned to me. I cannot go on fighting my sister, Elsa's executers, and any other family. It is too great a cost, and has been exacerbated by my mother's passing last month.
