Aunt Marguerite Alford at 106

Patti out front of Aunt Marguerite’s birth home on 12th Street in Little Rock.
It all comes together once told that Marguerite Alford was born in this home more than 100 years ago. Just standing here, brought back treasured memories to Patti as she recalled she and her sisters (Suzanne and Margie) visiting grandparents , sitting on the front porch swing, watching the men clean the fresh fish catch on the lower level and so many more reasons to something special about this place in our Capitol City.

Sisters. Suzanne. Patti. Margie.
What a wonderful experience this was for me to revisit my grandparent’s home. I could “feel” their presence. We went to their home every Sunday after church. Mamaw and Grandad would also babysit Margie and me sometimes. We loved her spaghetti and loved playing Parcheesi with them. Mamaw taught me how to sew clothes for my dolls. Love and treasure those memories.
