(Not So) Wordless Wednesday - Post 227: Randy's High School Graduation Picture

 I am posting photographs from my family collections for (Not So) Wordless Wednesday (you know me, I can't go wordless!). 

Here is a photograph from the Geraldine (Seaver) Remley family collection handed down from my Aunt Gerry in 2007 after her passing. 
 



I think that this is the only picture I have of me at age 17 - and it's probably a good thing!  

This is the day of my graduation from San Diego High School in June 1961.  It was taken at the home of Marshall and Dorothy (Taylor) Chamberlain, probably by my mother or by Dorothy;  it was sent to Geraldine Seaver, who put it in her scrapbook.  The date on the photo edge is Jan 1962, which means that it stayed in someone's camera for a fairly long time!  

The persons in the picture are (from left):

*  Randall J. Seaver (moi), born 1943, in a suit, tie, grad gown and grad cap.  I think that I'm looking at my little brother to make sure he doesn't do something to mess up the picture.  
*  Emily (Richmond) Taylor, my great-aunt "Aunt Emily," who was the sister of my father's mother.
*  Frederick W. Seaver (in back of Scott), my father.
*  Scott (in front of my father), my youngest brother
*  Stan, the middle son of our family.
