In order to continue high school Mom was taken in, “as an act of charity,” by her maiden Aunt Mary and moved to Sarnia, Ontario. Aunt Mary had the disposition of the evil stepmother in “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs”; Mom was literally her servant. As well as going to school, she did all the cooking and cleaning. All of the table linens, sheets, and napkins had to be starched and ironed crisp with the iron she heated on the stovetop. Silverware was cleaned of every spec of tarnish. At dinners and teas, if guests were there, she wore a maid’s uniform: white apron, black dress. Mom only had a few hours off on Sunday afternoons after church to be a carefree young woman.
