A Plea from the daughter of "Old ACE" member, ACE 386

Continued



Lastly, see the photos attached. The black and white photo was my dad taken some time in 1959-1960 as it was his first photo as Faculty or as a Teacher at Random Lake High School for the Year Book. The other photo, one of my favorites, was taken in 2018, about a year before his death at age 92. I am and always will be a Daddy’s girl and not a day goes by that I don’t miss him – terribly.

Thankfully,

Cynthia Schmidt, daughter of Gilbert Schmidt (deceased)

  Ruth was the then ACE Secretary (1940’s). The letter was sent to my Dad in 1942 – postmark from West Point, PA is too faint to read and sadly Ruth didn’t date her letter.  What I like about this letter is she actually outlines what the ‘rules’ of joining the Ace club was back then.
