I was with her and her son, Robert, as we drove along the east bench of Salt Lake City, Utah, around 90th South. She showed us where her home and orchards used to be located. She marveled about how everything had changed with streets and buildings now where she used to run through rows of trees. Her father was a prominent orchardist.
