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.
