This is another photo taken by me, Peggie Boldt, at Toots' house in July 2009 at her 4th of July card party. She is with her longtime friend Ruth Bunzel from Coal City.

This photo was taken by me, Peggie Boldt, at Toots' home on July 5, 2010 at one of the many card parties she hosted. I thought it was really beautiful and captured how she always looked. Beautiful smile and a gracious friend and host.
