Mark, Happy Thanksgiving! That photo brings back memories of the family photos we used to take back then. Sad part is my family who were in the photos have now passed. Nevertheless you took me on a nice trip to the past especially since we spent some Thanksgivings in Dumont, NJ that's in Bergen County........those were the days.


Thanks, Steve! I know Dumont from back in my 54 - 58' FDU (Teaneck) days.

Up until Covid, my family had been gathering on Thanksgiving since 1941. Our first was in Jersey City, NJ at my maternal Grandparent's apartment. This is the only photo I have from that first Thanksgiving. My family gathered for 78 consecutive years. Covid broke the tradition.

Left to right: top - my maternal grandparents, Bottom: My aunt & uncle, my cousin Gail, another aunt & uncle, me, my Mom & Dad. I'm the only one still alive.
note: The photo was taken by a cousin who was a professional photographer and served in the Army during WWII.

I wish all my UHH friends a Happy & Healthy Thanksgiving!!

That's a wonderful image to remember your family. Happy Thanksgiving to you also (even if I am a day late!).

That’s a great photo, Mark, but who was the photographer? Brings back great memories of Holidays in the 50s at Grandma and Grandpa’s railroad flat apartment on New York’s upper east side…before it became THE UPPER EAST SIDE😂 The families that grew from those days are all spread out and we’re trying to figure out how we might replicate the scene next year.
Thanks for sharing!

Thanks, Dannj!
The photographer was a WWII veteran and cousin of mine. He became a professional photographer.
