EXCUSE me, is there anyone out there who can remember “Myrt and Marge”, a soap vintage 30’s ? My early days were filled with these incredible programs;  Helen Trent, Our Gal Sunday, When A Girl Marries, David Harum and of course The Shadow !  My dad and I were Shadow trekkies !  Oh, Lamont Cranston AKA the Shadow “knows what evil lurks in the heart of men”.  HaHa, it didn’t take me long to learn that one, I guarantee !  The old wooden Philco with its static and truly lousy reception forced me to learn to fill in the empty spaces and I still do !  I loved my life all those years ago, we were family, we ate together, we sang together, we played together.  We lived together !  Lots of joy not much stuff !  And that antiquated Philco on the side table reminds me of a searing memory of a day too many years past when a familiar voice began, “December 7th, 1941, a day that will live in infamy……..and it still does !           Sincerely,          Claire B.
