A Prized Photograph Tells a Timeless Love Story

This is one of my most prized photographs.

My grandmother Virginia Benton O’Brien and my grandfather William A. O’Brien. My mother is with them in the stroller, and my Aunt Peggy and Uncle Bill are walking alongside.

My grandfather was a physician and professor at the University of Minnesota. My grandmother was hired to care for his two young children after his first wife died. They fell in love and were married. My mother was born shortly after.

This photograph of them was taken in St. Paul, Minnesota in 1937. ~shared by @julie_abnet
