“50 Years ago – Chief Curtis Brostron”
It is just too hard to believe… some of the old news items – – that one will find – – when they take the time to look through old boxes of memories.
This “NEWS” of the day – – January of 1967 – – my husband, Lee passed away – – and in this clipping – – we see the “Chief of Police Curtis Brostron” crown Miss Carol-Lynn Howard … the Lily Day Queen.
This ceremony took place at City Hall – – to mark the opening of the 1967 Easter Seal campaign of the St. Louis Society … for Crippled Children.
The above news story was just above the story in the ‘newspaper clip’… that is posted above this one.
“WHY did I clip this story?”
Before “Chief Brostron” becoming ‘Chief” – – he and my husband, Lee Aldrich were riding partners on the St.Louis Police Department – – and very good partners – – if I say so myself. – – So with me knowing “Mrs. Susan L. Cost” – – and her story right below the “Chief’s” story – – just had to clip and save – – and with all kinds of memories – – to remember …”Lee” – – this was the week to find this old news – – and with the computer and “fourgrandmas.com” – – just had to let the whole wide world know… and remember if they remember either one of these fine people?
