This is a photograph of Everest Elliott Watrous and his second wife, Susan Irvine Shirts.  Everest had been a widower since his wife’s death in 1929 and boarded in the home that Susan owned.  In 1945 they married and remained in her home until near Everest’s death in 1958 when he went to live with his son Everest Raymond Watrous.  We don’t know the occasion which caused both to be dressed in their Sunday best.  Everest’s grandchildren have all mentioned how much they loved Grandma Susie.
