By LISA RATHKE Associated Press writer PABKCITY MUSEUM Easier with the Andersons By Courtney Cochley, Project Coordinator Park City Museum COURTESY PARK CITY HISTORICAL SOCIETY & MUSEUM, ANDERSON DIGITAL COLLECTION Rhoda Anderson enjoys the spring sun with her children in 1936. The April 10, 1936, issue of The Park Record declared that "weather permitting there will be much feminine finery on parade next Sunday-Easter."' This statement refers to the tradition of women on Easter to wear new spring fashions and Easter bonnets. These hats were adorned with flowers, either real or made from paper. This photo shows Rhoda Anderson and her children outside their Woodside Avenue home in 1936. The family is dressed for spring, with Rhoda in her floral dress and hat, baby Lynette with a bonnet, and the boys in light colors. Lafayette "Lafe" Anderson was born in Park City. After graduating from the University of Utah with his law degree in 1928, Lafe returned to Park City. Lafe served several terms as the Summit County Attorney and was the local representative of Havenor, Pett & Co., a brokerage firm that bought and sold stocks. In 1930 Lafe married Rhoda Workman. The couple would have four children: Lafe, Jr. in 1931, Wes in 1933, Lynette in 1935, and Josephine in 1941. The Park City Historical Society & Museum wishes everyone a Happy Easter.
