My dad grew up in Queens, N.Y.. Dirt poor. Made a meal out of beans and pasta. Cardboard in shoes. But his grandma owed the house they lived in. Candy store in front of house. We have always owned homes.

LOL-—I remember cardboard in shoes.

My mother was widowed in 1938,2 small children,she never owned a home——but we survived.
