Charlotte Scott 1923-2012

My mother passed away on Wednesday

February 22.She just turned 89 on Feb 9.

I found this old yellowed newspaper page

at the bottom of a box stuffed in a closet.

It was torn and yellowed with age but it

perfectly captures the essence of who she

was. I'd never seen it before I stumbled upon

it and now it is my most treasured memento.

The caption beneath the photo reads-

Charlotte Hill of 422 Washington St.,

Syracuse, lively George Washington School

Pupil, symbolizes the spirit of health.

" When spring unlocks the flowers to paint

the laughing soil."
