Notes

As rembered by Judith Hoyne Pelz

I was very young when Grandma and Grandpa Herrick moved to Milwaukee where I spent some of my summer vacation.

I especially remember the apartment at 2137 Michigan .It was across the street from the Eagles Club and Ballroom where we would run in during the day to get a drink of water from the drinking fountains.

Grandpa and uncle Joe worked at Millprint and I remember watching them print bread wrappers. Grandma and I took sandwiches to Grandpa and Joe when they were on the picket line. They were instrumental in bringing the union to Millprint.

Grandma and Grandpa loved to go to softball and baseball games where Grandpa either kept score or "umped" . He knew Pat Piper, the field announcer at Wrigley Field when when he used only a small loudspeaker with a hand-held microphone.

Christine and Joseph Herrick produced four children : Grace Pearl Herrick Bunt, Joseph, Lorraine, and George .

In the latter part of their lives, Christine and Joe lived with my parents, Grace and Julius in Hillside .
Joseph Herrick died at the age of 67 in 1958.
