American TB Society Flyer Featuring the Lopez Children

A reproduction of a photograph from a newspaper article. The American TB Society put out a flyer to help the Lopez family during the time the father of the family, Archie Lopez, was hospitalized for two years with lung cancer, likely from working with fertilizer. Archie's friends and family helped the Lopezs get through that difficult time. Rosario Lopez remembers manong helping the family and taking her and her siblings to get ice cream. At the bottom of the reproduction, the caption asks for donations. Pictured are Archie and Margaret Lopez's children. Pictured from left to right are John Yepez Lopez, Arsenio Lopez Jr., Rosario Lopez, Delia Lopez Ramirez, and Richard Lopez.

The reproduction was created by Rosario Lopez for a family bulletin board.
