Here are some photos of the my Dad's "homefront". These are the faces he was surely longing to see. Like all the other families, Dad's parents & sister kept him going with cards :envelope: , letters, food, care packages - and most of all LOVE 
.
These pictures were taken in Feb 1944 and sent to him at Anzio (I can only imagine how he
must've felt when he opened his mail & saw his dear home & family).
Here's his home at 21 Fairbanks Ave Wellesley MA, his parents, his sister Mary (taken in front of St John's Church where they were baptised & me too! and where Dad served at Mass as an altar boy). Last, but not least, is Dad's dog Jeff sunning himself in a pile of leaves fall 1943.
Who were YOUR loved ones on the homefront?
