“Jelly Bean” is Eleanor Faucher’s… NICK-NAME”
If you live long enough… everyone will be celebrating a special “DAY”… just in your ‘NICK-NAME’… honor! So if you are in AMERICA – – why not try your hand at creating some of the treats in the PHOTO below…for any occasion – – that will look good and have some nice “Jelly Beans” – – to make our “RED – WHITE and BLUE – – American Flag stand out and looking first class all the way!
Here is a “special shirt” – – just for Eleanor Faucher!
“Here is a special bag… of “JELLY BEANS” –
– and for the girl friend of mine… that you see sitting on the front lawn in the PHOTO to the right – below… Eleanor Faucher!”
In the late 1940’s and early 1950’s – – some of our classmates at the German Saint Vincent Orphanage – – decided to give ourselves a “NICK-NAME” and the “NICK-NAME” that Eleanor Faucher decided she wanted for herself… “JELLY BEAN” – – – – a “NAME” that I just could never forget – – I do not remember anyone having ever called her – – by her “NICK NAME” – – but some people like me – – just can not forget some things – – that make no sense – – I know everybody “KNOWS” someone like that!
Top Row – L to R — Donald Pfeifer …”Peanuts” – Betty Jean Musgrove… “Our Poetic Genius” – Jean Saettele… “With Dark Red Hair” – Violet Pfeifer… “A Dainty Little Miss”

From the list above… you can find some of the names – – that a few… “select few” – – thought of … for the PHOTOS that were taken for our GRADUATES of 1952 – – and – – TODAY – – “Who remembers any of these NAMES – – any one should be called or even “IF” ever remembered by?” – – “What’s in a NAME?” – – “A ROSE stills smells like a “ROSE” – – no matter what?”
“Blessings to all the 1952 Graduates – – if you see this post… let us hear how you are doing today?” D.V.
