Lessie Jordan Baucom holding Illa Jordan. Not sure where the photo was taken. Probably 1927 in Tenn?





Photo above: Lennie Lee Thornton Jordan, mother of Lessie O. Jordan Baucom with her brother, Al Thornton. Everyone called her Granny. She died in November of 1961.

The photo of Lennie was taken in the yard of Comer & Lessie's home in Birmingham, AL, in the Germania Park neighborhood of the West End community. The home was the former orphanage known as the Lula May Foster Home for Boys.

"I Know You By Heart"


Midnights in winter
The glowing fire
Lights up your face in orange and gold
I see your sweet smile
Shine through the darkness
Its line is etched in my memory
So I'd know you by heart



Mornings in april
Sharing the secrets
We'd walk until the morning was gone
We were like children
Laughing for hours
The joy you gave me
Lives on and on
'Cause I know you by heart

I still hear your voice
On warm summer nights


Whispering like the wind.




 You left in autumn
The leaves were turning
I walked down roads of orange and gold
I saw your sweet smile
I heard your laughter
You're still here beside me
Everyday
'Cause I know you by heart



In loving memory of "Flossie Mae."
