Mrs. O'Flynn's husband died 6 weeks earlier and she would like the gift to include his name with some mention such as "Mrs. Evelyn O'Flynn and Mr. James O'Flynn gave the toys to their daughter Moira O'Flynn". This collection of toys was played with by the donor's daughter, Moira, before attending school in 1976. Moira was born on September 19, 1971. |
