The first three pictures above date from Beverly's college days. The fourth is, I believe, from the 1960s. Most of the rest are from about the 1980s. They are grouped here more by subject matter than by chronology. It will be evident that my mother was a passionate about gardening, amid her other interests and loves. The second-last picture is of her husband, Bob. The last, which was to have been of me, begun in the early 1990s, was left unfinished.
