Here is my parents’ wedding picture from July 16, 1960. Dad’s grandpa, Earl Belknap, had died July 13, 1960 but the family said they should go on with the wedding. My aunt (standing next to mom) had secretly married an African-American man on July 4, 1960. She still lived at home and didn’t tell anyone until after my parents’ wedding.
