This is a biography of my mother, Lorraine Messing Kunigisky, 1919-2008. Gives you a picture of what it was like to be a child during the roaring twenties, a teen during the depression, a young wife and mother during the World War II years, and how that formed the platform for coping with the restrictive 50s, the permissive 60s and 70s and what it's was like to move into old age before you've accomplished all you wanted to.
