Life story
April 10, 1969
 
Born at Sherman Hospital Elgin, IL on April 10, 1969.
December 1969
 
First sisters portrait of the three sisters. Peggy has had this picture in a frame on her wall for 38 years and it was so faded it would not scan correctly. We only had enough money at the time to purchase one shot so the one group shot was all she had. While putting together a life story DVD for family, we discovered slides of several different group shots & three individual poses for each sister which were in perfect condition because Peggy had forgotten all about them and they had never been taken out of the box. You see Peggy's hand in the group pic because little Lisa was afraid of the whole process. As you can see in the pics in the main album, she relaxed enough to start clowning ... even at 8 months old.
