Found at Mom’s:
- One note (Mom’s handwriting) containing Francis LeClair’s address in Two Rivers, WI.
- One photo of a man sitting on a structure with “Aug. of ’54 A time to remember” written on the back. It was signed FLC.
- One telegram from Francis LeClair to Mom on her wedding day (9-4-1954) reminding her it was not too late to change her mind.

I actually remember my Dad mentioning mom’s sweetheart in Two Rivers. Her mother grew up there and it was a place her family visited often but Dad never liked to go. I guess this is why.

There’s that wild Mom of yours again. I wonder what happened to Francis? Unrequited love stories always make me a wee bit sad, although maybe he met another love later on.

I hope he did.
After Mom died I thought of contacting him to let him know, but I didn’t.

Did you try to find him on Facebook (because I totally did – don’t think he’s on it).

Haha, I probably did check. I also googled him. I found a Frank LeClair but he was a generation or so older than Francis.
