Richard Pearl was a senior at Cretin High when Kathleen's father took this picture in the Neilson back yard on Marshall Ave in St. Paul. Kathleen is younger than Richard, and, she admits, there were sparks and everyone kind of knew it. (Dad probably told us to stand closer together, she laughs.) Richard married, became a schoolteacher and raised a family. His obituary says he was an avid golfer and today Kathleen and a life-long friend, Fran, will attend an open house in his memory at Keller Golf Course. She'll bring this and other photos.
