Zepp (April 2011)
Hi Dick ,
The photo (above) came to light amidst my sisters photos. You might wish to pop this / or part of it onto your web site.The lady on the left is Helen Holley - she's cited as providing some of the information on the Southbridge town history & seal. She was the staff manager / personnel director during the early days at OSV.For reference - next is Elizabeth Parker / Van Norman / Hauenstein and her husband Oskar ( Okie) Hauenstein. The lady on the right is Marie Maddocks , my so-special Auntie who worked at OSV from the early 50s until the 1980s.
Love
& Aloha, Ellen ( & MIke)
