from "Memories" by Jane Ann Hall:
It was during this same period of time [c.1939], that my Aunt Maude and Uncle Harry arrived on Aunt Mabel's doorstep almost penniless. They had been in Fargo, N. Dakota, where they had lost everything they owned in a big storm. The Vaudeville business had been going down hill for many years with the advent of talking pictures, and was soon to be a thing of the past. They were very strict Christian Scientists, and Uncle Harry, so the story goes, put his last quarter in the collection plate. So with no money and no job, they came to Okmulgee for refuge. Uncle Harry finally found a job selling cookware door to door. They stayed with Aunt Mabel for a while, but Aunt Maude thought she could help us out by moving in with us, which is what they did. Aunt Maude did the best she could, I am sure, but her cooking rated with mine, so it wasn't exactly a bonus.
For years, Uncle Harry had always talked about his rich uncle who lived somewhere in the northeast. I am not even sure he had ever seen him, and secretly, the family all thought this was just talk. Then, one day while staying with us, he got word his uncle had died, and he had been left a large sum of money. No one could believe this, much less Uncle Harry. But it was true. Soon after that, they left to go to Hollywood to make their home. Uncle Harry died many years later due to skin cancer.Maude married (3) Floyd Othniel Strong 20 Aug 1961.

From "Memories" by Jane Ann Hall:
My mother was a good cook, and her specialty was making jams and jellies. Every summer, as various fruits came into season, she would spend several days making all kinds of jelly or jam. These had to last all winter, as we never bought any from the grocery store. Because food was not shipped around the country as it is today, we ate what was grown locally. Also, since we lacked the method of preservation that exists today, we ate things as they came into season, or canned them for use out of season. Mother didn't do much canning, so in the winter we usually bought canned goods from the grocery store. The only fish we ate would have been bass or catfish which were found in our local lake or rivers. I had never tasted shellfish, such as shrimp, lobster, or clams, until much later in life. I knew nothing about ethnic foods, as our diet was a mixture of Southern and English style cooking.The grocery store where we shopped was locally owned and operated. It was quite small, but had all of our needs. Most of the time, Mother phoned in her daily order, which would then be delivered. We probably went into the store only once or twice a month. She would simply ask what vegetables or fruits were fresh, and consult with the butcher about the cut of meat she wanted. Our food was charged, and the monthly bill always ran around thirty dollars. We did buy chickens and butter from the farmer who delivered on Saturday. Our milk was delivered every other day by the dairy. The empty bottles would be put on the doorstep, and replaced with the fresh ones.
Sometime during my Junior year, Mother, who was very near-sighted, was leaving my Aunt Mabel's house one Sunday evening about dusk. The house had a wide cement front porch with about six or so cement steps down to the sidewalk. No one thought to turn the porch light on, and Mother misjudged the location of the first step, tumbling down the entire flight. She was in excruciating pain, and of course rushed to the hospital. She had smashed her knee-cap, and her leg was put into a cast. Naturally, I took over as cook and house-keeper, neither of which I was very good at. However, I did the best I could under the circumstances.
Mother was in such pain, that the doctor thought she should not try to walk on crutches, but use a wheelchair. This created other problems, as our house was not wheelchair friendly. Somehow, we managed, but her knee was not healing properly. Dad finally took her to the doctor I had gone to in Tulsa, and he removed the cast, saying it was all wrong, and she should not have one. I am not quite sure how he treated it, but I do know she used a wheelchair for almost a year, before graduating to crutches, and finally a cane, which she used for the remainder of her life.
---
I was called to the telephone that evening. My mother had still been having trouble with her knee, and had gone to see a specialist in Memphis, and just returned home. The diagnosis was ominous. She had developed cancer of the bone. The only medical treatment available was X-Ray, for which she would need to make daily trips to Tulsa (about a 50 mile drive), and still needed help at home. I was the only one they could turn to, so the following day, my father came down to bring me back home. Naturally I was disappointed that my college career ended so abruptly, but my mother was very important to me, and college could always wait. So, back home I went.
---
After Christmas, I returned to classes. In the late spring, Mother was not feeling well, and Dad decided to take her to the famous Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. We all went and I took time off from school again, expecting to be back in about ten days.Another cancer had been discovered. This time it was a Uterine cancer, and immediate surgery was urged. She was operated on, and within a day or so, my brother received word that he had to return immediately for trial. We had to leave Mother as my Dad felt he needed me. The trial was held, and Ben was sentenced to five years in prison. We were all devastated. But someone had to tell my mother. Of course, I was chosen, and made the sad trip back to Rochester to break the news to her. I don't remember how she took it. However, it would be almost five more weeks until she was allowed to make the trip back home by train, so I stayed there to be with her. By the time I finally got home, I had missed the final exams, and was not able to make them up. So as far as any college credit was concerned, it all went down the drain.
That summer Mother improved dramatically. I decided I would get a job, while determining what to do in the fall. I started working at one of the three movie houses in the ticket booth. This was sort of a fun job. I could be home with mother most of the day, and start work for the evening movie. After about three weeks on the job, the manager called me in to say that much to his regret, he would have to fire me. I was appalled. He explained it had nothing to do with my work, but that there were too many complaints about his hiring the sister of a "draft dodger". That was the first time I had heard that phrase, and didn't realize what people really thought.
---
At the moment more serious matters were at hand. Mother's health began to deteriorate at a rapid pace. It became necessary to have someone with her at all times. So, I quit my job, and became her nurse. I learned how to give IV'S, shots of morphine, back-rubs, etc. She was now completely bed-ridden, and three months later, died in peace .Up to that time, it was the saddest day of my life.My mother's death marked the ending of the first chapter of my life. She had been my best friend, companion, and advisor. Despite her long illness, she never lost her sense of humor, nor did she ever feel sorry for herself. I was no longer a child, and the rest of my life was just beginning.
