It was fun working with the camera. I liked the visit and taking the pictures. I took a couple of pictures. It was kind of hard because you have to hold the camera straight. Mrs. Kline had a lot of funny stories. ... Amber J.

I asked, "Could you tell us a few memories about your home life as a child?" She said she rode her bike a lot. She told us her dad dug up a human bone at her Grandma's house when they were making a Victory Garden. They found a complete skeleton of a young lady. She could have died of a contagious disease because it had a viewing glass. They found the coffin handles and the black satin lining. ...Nick S.

During refreshments Mrs. Kline talked with a small group about many things. She answered questions. Her stories about being a teenager during WWII were funny but a little scary.

Meeting Mrs. Kline was very interesting. We wrote down what she said in our notes. She had a lot of good stories.
