A custom of the time. [S10] R.W. Ryan, E-mail. Raymond Ryan 9:19 AM (3 hours ago) to me Good morning, Mary Frances! I talked with my sister, Marcia, last night in regard to cousin Hilda Hurt. She said cousin Hilda was our aunt Adelaide?s best friend, and they were like sisters. She had a framed picture of her in the second parlor at 2005 W. Grace St., prominently displayed on the wall. Marcia said that when cousin Hilda died, our aunt Adelaide was informed by telephone of her passing. She immediately burst into tears, excused herself, and went to her bedroom to grieve. For background aunt Adelaide was called ?sister? by family. She was named for her mother, Adelaide Blanche Liggan Ryan. I hope you have a great day. I have an appointment with my neurologist this morning so need to run. Keep in touch, my dear cousin. Love ya! Ray
