Happy Sunday. I really do miss Sunday dinners after church, not sure if this was Easter, Sunday dinner after church or a family/ Friends fellowship. In the back row are several of my Grandmother Sisters (Josephine Jonhson-Clark). The young fella in the middle is my Uncle Joe/Sherman Johnson. If anyone can identify any of the people in the front, please let me know? The picture was taken in NYC while many of them were visiting from Clinton, Sc.
