Uncle John Jorjorian with nephew Haig, niece Shake, Haig's first wife ("Blondie"), and grand-nephews/niece Eddie, Al, Leon, and Violet Eliseian.

The girl, Violet, celebrated her first birthday in Yosemite, in July 1934. In July 2014, she celebrated her 81st birthday there. Unfortunately, 2015 was the first year in decades that she missed her summer birthday trip. She hopes to return in 2016. View full size.
