    The Tuckers - Fred, Betty (Ryan) ,Bill, Paul, and Kathy loved to visit the Ryans - Ray, Norma, Barbara, Dave, and Judy - for picnics, ballgames, etc in the '50s and '60s. The parents and kids were close in age. The Tuckers loved Aunt Norma.  When I visit a lighthouse I always think of Norma, and I always will.
