The Spoons

I Had a friend that I worked with for years. She rode to work with me and was
always so jolly and a joy to be around.  I left for a better paying job and she 
moved to another city but never sold the house she owned.  We stayed in touch
but as time went by we lost touch.  Her daughter called me one day and told me
she had passed away.  She told me they was going to have an estate sale at her
mother's house and thought I would like come by and pick something for a
keepsake for myself before the sale.  I picked a set of gold brushed coin
silver spoons pat.  In 1884 by J.  F.  Kohler and made in the John H.Tyler &
Co.  In Richmond, Va..  The set is supposed to have twelve spoons but had only
eleven.  It didn't matter that one spoon was missing because I had something
special to remember her by and it was made in the city I live.  Someday I hope
I'll find this special spoon so I can complete the set.  Until then I will
cherish the ones I have.  Betty (See photos of these spoons at
