Truman "Tru" Griggs in 1937 as best man at my grandparents wedding

Hard rain last night. Cloudy and sunny all day. Fine afternoon.

Left here about 8 A.M. and drove to Sierra Madre and visited the folks there awhile [this is my Grandfather's Uncle Albert, his mother's brother, and his wife and kids]. I drove them (Al, Ana, Minnie) to the episcopal church, then Ma, Pa, Dot, Anabelle and I went into the congregational church next door to hear the preacher we heard in Santa Ana once and liked so well. Lewellyn, Anabelle, Dot, Pa and I drove around a little after church and stooped and brought Tru, Al, Ana, and Minnie home. True is half and inch shorter than I am, but weighs quite a bit more - has long pants and looks quite a man. He has an appointment to Annapolis and is going there soon. 

We did not stop there for dinner as we had to go to Ethel's - arrived there about two and had a lunch as they had eaten. Visited all aft and eve and left for Anaheim about 8:30. Home 10:30. Grand came back. 7 eggs.

The Congregational Church in 1906 still stand today.
