My Family Is In The Painting

My Grandmother is the little girl with the bubble gum. My Great-Grandparents are the mom and dad. This painting has been hanging in most of my family's houses since I can remember.



My Grandma's name is Yvonne Cross Dorr.

She recently passed away (May 25th 2011) and we all thank Norman Rockwell for choosing her, as we have our happy memories growing up with her. She is forever a happy girl for all of history to enjoy as well.

From Keith: Thank you so much for sharing. And thanks for the photo of Gram.

And I am so sorry for your loss.

As you know, she was also the model in other paintings, such as Little Girl Observing Lovers On A Train in addition to Going and Coming.

Going And Coming is one of my favorites.

Once again, thanks for your comments.
