Crowned Rome Centennial Queen in August 1970
In August of 1970, Rome, NY was celebrating the city's anniversary of being a centennial city. (1870 to 1970)
A Rome Centennial Queen contest I had competed for had selected me as their queen.
As the tiara was crowned on my head, I recall a tear running down my face with my heart filled with joy.
I was gifted with a two week vacation to Bermuda. I learned their culture and many friendly Bermudians.
This is still a memory I will always cherish.
