Through the genealogical research of Lynda Von Duhn, her mother Peggy Lill and aunt Gladys Nohlquist were reunited last month after spending a lifetime apart. They last saw each other 79 years ago at an orphanage in Troy, N.Y.
Lill, who was 4, recalls that Nohlquist, then 2, was wearing a sunsuit with a duck on the front. She is sure of it.
Nohlquist insists that wasn't her.
"Did you have blonde hair?" Lill, 83, asked her sister.
"No, I had brown hair," said Nohlquist, 81, after the two were reunited recently in Lill's Glenview home. [Link]
