Book Description
This book details the history of Karen Sofie Valborg Rasmussen, with photographs and poems. She was a governess, seamstress, mother, wife, and widow who emigrated from Denmark in 1906. She lived in Schenectady, New York for her remaining years, returning to Denmark at least twice. She was a founding member of the Danish Sisterhood Society Lodge #142 in Schenectady and encouraged the assimilation of many young immigrant Americans. She was a seamstress in great demand in the days before store bought clothes. She befriended and sewed for many of the society ladies in the community. Her poems are infused with caring, faith, friends, family, and most of all encouragement. Author, Seena Karen Rasmussen Drapala, her granddaughter, recounts her memories of her beloved Grandma Val.
