Description
Full title:Brother and sister, Meddy Shigeo Itami, are shown in their greenhouse at 67th and Holgate, Portland, Oregon. The Sukemon Itami family relocated before Easter from Heart Mountain and have been kept busy since their return trying to grow enough flowers to supply their retail and wholesale trade. Three of Mr. Itami's sons and a son-in-law have been in the service, one recently receiving a medical discharge. The two Itami boys who are overseas met in France and wrote home that they were able to get together for a good chinfest on family news. Neither son knew the other was in the vicinity. Caucasian neighbors have been very friendly since the Itamis returned, and while this picture was being taken, the woman stopped to ask for the addresses of the boys over seas. Mr. Itami reports that many sailors, sons of neighbors, have stopped to inquire about his sons so that they may write to them. Photographer: Iwasaki, Hikaru Portland, Oregon.
