Christmas 1998

Grandma Korfhage was in the Heritage-Shadyside this Christmas, clearing up an infection before knee surgery. David, Willard, Haruko, and Robert were in Pittsburgh for the holiday.

It was quite cold, but not particularly snowy.

We had the lounge in the Heritage pretty much to ourselves, so we opened our gifts there.

During this trip Robert wore a sweater that Lisa knitted. He tried it, and signaled his approval.
