Vintage photographs from the 1930s and beyond from the family of Victor Faria Soares, Sr. and Rose Raymond Soares of Somerset, Mass., my grandparents. These were digitized by my uncle, Arthur Faria Soares, who also provided me with many stories about my family and his experiences growing up. The children of Rose and Victor Sr. were: Victor Jr., Beatrice, Raymond (my father), and Arthur.
My mémère, Rose Raymond Soares, looking out of a window of her home. This photo is a perfect depiction of her joie de vivre. Uncle Arthur wrote, "She (had) a wonderful sense of humor and she filled many happy days of my life with her own anecdotes and the joyful moments of others...I recall her once saying to me not to worry about things in life...that things always seem difficult in the beginning, but they always end up being trivial in the end."
