This is a photograph of "the Tungshek Family" made up of Maryknoll Sisters Imelda Superior, Albert, Magdalina, Jean Theophane, Marulline, Luella, Anna Mary, Rita Marie, Miriam Louise, Madeline Sophie and three Chinese boys that joined in for the picture. "The three little boys, among our good friends would come to the kitchen door with bouquets of wild flowers- rain flowers, daises, etc. in exchange for a holy card or a cookie." To the right is the rectory and church and mountains in the background.
