This is Dee, My friend Jan introduced her to me. She was Miss Manhattan 1949, was born in Italy in 1928, and moved to New York City when she was 5 years. She and her husband moved to a 1837 farm house in Kennett Square after they got married. As age 88, she still has her sense of humor, she remembered everything, and showed us her pictures, from her picture in daycare to her wedding photos. She loves gardening, once worked in Long wood garden as a volunteer. She keeps her own small green house, it full of beautiful plants.
