I was in the Class of 1949. Back then it was called the South Pasadena-San Marino High School. This photo layout was done by my daughter-in-law (Stefanie Clark Eskander -Class of '69) as a tribute to commemorate my life. I passed away in 2008. The photo on the left is how I looked in high school.

I gave my daughter-in-law my treasured Shirley Temple doll which I won in a Shirley Temple Look-Alike Contest. Since my daughter-in-law, Stefanie, is a doll & toy designer you can bet it will stay in our family for generations.

I worked as a teller at the South Pasadena Bank of America. That is where I met my husband, Henry Aaron Eskander, who was also a teller there. The rest is history! We were married at the Oneonta Congregational Church in South Pasadena.

This layout shows me as a little child, with my father Lawrence E. Gore and my older brother Zane Edward Gore. Finally on the left, is a shot of me as a young mother looking through time and into eternity.
