Many years later, Helen Pauley Hopkins, one of the children in the photo was interviewed when she was in her 70s.⁣

“I remember one Christmas where Dad made us a whistle out of a corn cob. He put three feathers on the top of the cob. He’d throw it in the air and it would make a whistle on its way down.⁣

I was two when this picture was taken. We lived one day at a time. We always waited for father to get home from work, so we could sit at the table and eat with him.⁣

I worked as a janitor at Maple Valley school. But I kind of put my life aside to care for family members. I was with both of my parents and my siblings when they died.⁣

I think my mother had to put up with hell to live like this. She was such a wonderful person. Truth be known, she went without to see we had what we needed.⁣

There wasn’t a night when my parents didn’t tell us all how much they loved us. That meant the world to me.”⁣

Yeah but no one can AFFORD to do this anymore, and demographics blah blah blah. These kids grew up in what we would call poverty and yet shared a loving home that kept strong bonds between them FOR LIFE>
