Thank you for researching and sharing the history of this house. I came across this article as I saw the house for sale and am very interested in it. It would be so exciting to be apart of its history and maintain its beauty.

In reply to Richard Halpert-Scanderbeg. I'm afraid that the photo in the blog is the only one I've been able to find so far. I'll let you know if I come up with anything else. Richard

In reply to Janina.

Hello Janina,

I am in contact with the director of the Historical Society in Szczekociny Marek Gradon and he already has all of our Family photos. The photo in this article is from my collection.

This fine home felt like my own during a visit with Rosemary. We share a long friendship that began when we were reporters on what is now the San Diego Union- Tribune. Over the years she has kept me in touch about the work she has done and has hired done, including graceful features carpentered by a crew of off-duty firefighters. There is a mellow, gently embracing quality you feel in some houses like this one that have been filled with love and life for generations. I particularly remember sleeping sweetly there, and its situation near the crest of the hill often captures a breeze touched with the scent of salt water. Sure that Rosemary is sorry to leave this treasure to the lucky family who discovers it, I know she does so to enjoy the greater treasure of her grandchildren. Brynmor in the photo on the porch is now old enough to have her read to him via Skype, but it is not as good as being able to climb on grandmother’s lap, hold the book, and read along with her.

Thank you for always providing such well researched articles. It is always a trip down memory lane as I was born in North Vancouver and lived there until I was married in 1968.
