Hi. This is Hank Drake, also Verna's grandson. So, I'm guessing that you must be married to either Freddy IV or David?
Grandvern didn't talk about her parents much, except that she said she never heard an angry word pass between them. Vernon died in 1931. Clara, who was known as Nanny to her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, died around 1966. Vernon either worked for or owned a music store which specialized in Duo-Art player pianos.
I see from the date of the post that it was written around the time Grandvern died. She has been much on my mind lately, since 2009 will be her centenary. Please write me back if you'd like to chat more.
