Minnie had a hard time getting her boys off to school every morning, even though they lived across the street from Assumption Grotto. But on the weekends they were up at 4 a.m. getting into mischief." 
Witness: Wilhelmina "Minnie" Knoche
AnecdoteWhen Margery and her sister, Agnes, were young girls they took piano lessons. Margery also took Hawiaan guitar lessons for a year, but said she preferred the piano as it was easier for her to follow the notes.
