Mom and Dad

My mom and dad, Edith Elnora Barrett Golden and Donald Paul Golden were married 2 July, 1942. They honeymooned in Galveston.

They remember driving across the causeway from near Texas City during the night with hooded headlights so as not to be detected by German submarines. They stayed in a motel on the seawall. They celebrated one anniversary at that motel when I was an adolescent.
