Childhood Memories 1959

Sometimes the time Marilyn and I spent with Mack and Martha Braswell in the late 50's and early 60's seems like a Fairy tale. We visited Mack in his apartment in KC. Recently I wondered where that apartment was in KC, so I stopped by the Down Town Library and this nice lady helped me with the microfilm of the city directory in 1959. The listing was: Mack and Martha Braswell, 609 E. 40th Street KCMO (supervisor City National Bank and Trust Co. KCMO) so I drove by and took pictures. I vaguely remember the apartment, I was 7 and Marilyn was 9 years old. I do remember riding the Greyhound bus to KC with Martha, having sandwiches in the bus depot and trips to the Zoo and Plaza in KC. I also remember taking the pictures of me and Marilyn with the new dolls Mack and Martha bought us on Mack's porch at the apartment. Oh so happy memories!
