She was raised in Venice, Italy and emigrated to the U.S.A. in 1920 at age nine with her mother Elizabeth and sister Josephine. Her aunt Maria Mazzoni, Martin's sister, also accompanied them on the ship. They arrived at the Port of New York and immigrated through Ellis Island. They joined Leona's father Martin in Hazleton, PA where Martin had immigrated in 1910. ","She graduated from Hazleton High School in 1929 and from St. Joseph's Hospital School of Nursing in Reading, PA in 1932. She then worked as registered nurse at Pennsylvania State Hospital, Corrigan Maternity Hospital, and Public Health Clinic in Hazleton, PA. ","After her parents' deaths, she lived with her sister, Josephine and brother-in-law, Carmen, in 1938. Her two brothers, Vincent and Louis, also lived in the household. Carmen provided the house, Josephine was the homemaker, and Leona provided financial support to raise the two orphaned brothers. ","In 1942, Leona joined the U.S. Army as a lieutenant in the Army Nurse Corps and was assigned to the Army Air Force base at Key Field in Meridian, Mississippi where she met Francis Curie Skilling (1900-1968), a medical officer who had volunteered for the Army Air Corps in 1942. He had been a practicing ophthalmologist since 1935 in Miami, FL until his death in 1968. ","She was later assigned to MacCluskey General Hospital in 1944 and served in Texas and Bushnell, Utah for overseas training. She was attached to the 172nd Hospital Unit and later the 142nd Hospital Unit of the University of Maryland. She served in the CBI (China – Burma – India) theater in 1945. Her main station was in Calcutta, India in a colonial hospital leased from the British government and staffed by Americans. She served as an RN with the nursing unit.","While in India she flew to Karachi and Darjeeling on USAAF transport aircraft. She flew \"over the Hump\" (the Himalayas) and into Kunming, China. She was usually the only female on the aircraft (C-47s) when wounded soldiers were being carried.","During her tour of duty overseas, she corresponded with Major Francis Skilling. She also corresponded with her sister Josephine and her nephews Robert and John Gaudio, known as \"Bobby\" and \"Jackie\". She corresponded with her brother Vincent, who served as\tan enlisted man in the US Army Chemical Corps. \n    Vincent was sent to Hollandia, New Guinea where he developed a mysterious blood disorder in 1945. He was returned to the U.S. mainland in 1945 and entered Walter Reed Army General Hospital in Washington, D.C. for treatment. Some of his surviving letters to his sister Josephine make up part of the collection.","In 1945, Leona was reassigned to Walter Reed Hospital as a nurse and was allowed to help take care of her brother Vincent, who was dying. After his death on September 20, 1945, his funeral was held in Hazleton, PA at the local parish church.","Leona had been in touch with Francis C. Skilling, who was still assigned to the deactivated hospital at Key Field, MS. After he obtained leave, they reunited at his family's home in Chevy Chase, MD where she met his parents. They had been separated for nearly two and a half years. They then traveled by train to Pennsylvania where they were married on Monday, December 3, 1945.","He was assigned to Ft. Sill, OK as a medical officer where they lived until he was discharged from active duty in 1946. They returned to his previous place of residence in Miami, FL where he re-opened his private ophthalmology practice .

She was raised in Venice, Italy and emigrated to the U.S.A. in 1920 at age nine with her mother Elizabeth and sister Josephine. Her aunt Maria Mazzoni, Martin's sister, also accompanied them on the ship. They arrived at the Port of New York and immigrated through Ellis Island. They joined Leona's father Martin in Hazleton, PA where Martin had immigrated in 1910. ","She graduated from Hazleton High School in 1929 and from St. Joseph's Hospital School of Nursing in Reading, PA in 1932. She then worked as registered nurse at Pennsylvania State Hospital, Corrigan Maternity Hospital, and Public Health Clinic in Hazleton, PA. ","After her parents' deaths, she lived with her sister, Josephine and brother-in-law, Carmen, in 1938. Her two brothers, Vincent and Louis, also lived in the household. Carmen provided the house, Josephine was the homemaker, and Leona provided financial support to raise the two orphaned brothers. ","In 1942, Leona joined the U.S. Army as a lieutenant in the Army Nurse Corps and was assigned to the Army Air Force base at Key Field in Meridian, Mississippi where she met Francis Curie Skilling (1900-1968), a medical officer who had volunteered for the Army Air Corps in 1942. He had been a practicing ophthalmologist since 1935 in Miami, FL until his death in 1968. ","She was later assigned to MacCluskey General Hospital in 1944 and served in Texas and Bushnell, Utah for overseas training. She was attached to the 172nd Hospital Unit and later the 142nd Hospital Unit of the University of Maryland. She served in the CBI (China – Burma – India) theater in 1945. Her main station was in Calcutta, India in a colonial hospital leased from the British government and staffed by Americans. She served as an RN with the nursing unit.","While in India she flew to Karachi and Darjeeling on USAAF transport aircraft. She flew \"over the Hump\" (the Himalayas) and into Kunming, China. She was usually the only female on the aircraft (C-47s) when wounded soldiers were being carried.","During her tour of duty overseas, she corresponded with Major Francis Skilling. She also corresponded with her sister Josephine and her nephews Robert and John Gaudio, known as \"Bobby\" and \"Jackie\". She corresponded with her brother Vincent, who served as\tan enlisted man in the US Army Chemical Corps. \n    Vincent was sent to Hollandia, New Guinea where he developed a mysterious blood disorder in 1945. He was returned to the U.S. mainland in 1945 and entered Walter Reed Army General Hospital in Washington, D.C. for treatment. Some of his surviving letters to his sister Josephine make up part of the collection.","In 1945, Leona was reassigned to Walter Reed Hospital as a nurse and was allowed to help take care of her brother Vincent, who was dying. After his death on September 20, 1945, his funeral was held in Hazleton, PA at the local parish church.","Leona had been in touch with Francis C. Skilling, who was still assigned to the deactivated hospital at Key Field, MS. After he obtained leave, they reunited at his family's home in Chevy Chase, MD where she met his parents. They had been separated for nearly two and a half years. They then traveled by train to Pennsylvania where they were married on Monday, December 3, 1945.","He was assigned to Ft. Sill, OK as a medical officer where they lived until he was discharged from active duty in 1946. They returned to his previous place of residence in Miami, FL where he re-opened his private ophthalmology practice . They had three children who were born in Miami Beach, FL: Francis, Jr., Vincent, and Mary Emma.","Francis C. Skilling was born on August 26, 1900 in Chicago, IL and passed away on August 8, 1968 in Miami, FL. Leona passed away on May 6, 1997 in Tallahassee, FL.

She was raised in Venice, Italy and emigrated to the U.S.A. in 1920 at age nine with her mother Elizabeth and sister Josephine. Her aunt Maria Mazzoni, Martin's sister, also accompanied them on the ship. They arrived at the Port of New York and immigrated through Ellis Island. They joined Leona's father Martin in Hazleton, PA where Martin had immigrated in 1910. ","She graduated from Hazleton High School in 1929 and from St. Joseph's Hospital School of Nursing in Reading, PA in 1932. She then worked as registered nurse at Pennsylvania State Hospital, Corrigan Maternity Hospital, and Public Health Clinic in Hazleton, PA. ","After her parents' deaths, she lived with her sister, Josephine and brother-in-law, Carmen, in 1938. Her two brothers, Vincent and Louis, also lived in the household. Carmen provided the house, Josephine was the homemaker, and Leona provided financial support to raise the two orphaned brothers. ","In 1942, Leona joined the U.S. Army as a lieutenant in the Army Nurse Corps and was assigned to the Army Air Force base at Key Field in Meridian, Mississippi where she met Francis Curie Skilling (1900-1968), a medical officer who had volunteered for the Army Air Corps in 1942. He had been a practicing ophthalmologist since 1935 in Miami, FL until his death in 1968. ","She was later assigned to MacCluskey General Hospital in 1944 and served in Texas and Bushnell, Utah for overseas training. She was attached to the 172nd Hospital Unit and later the 142nd Hospital Unit of the University of Maryland. She served in the CBI (China – Burma – India) theater in 1945. Her main station was in Calcutta, India in a colonial hospital leased from the British government and staffed by Americans. She served as an RN with the nursing unit.","While in India she flew to Karachi and Darjeeling on USAAF transport aircraft. She flew \"over the Hump\" (the Himalayas) and into Kunming, China. She was usually the only female on the aircraft (C-47s) when wounded soldiers were being carried.","During her tour of duty overseas, she corresponded with Major Francis Skilling. She also corresponded with her sister Josephine and her nephews Robert and John Gaudio, known as \"Bobby\" and \"Jackie\". She corresponded with her brother Vincent, who served as\tan enlisted man in the US Army Chemical Corps. \n    Vincent was sent to Hollandia, New Guinea where he developed a mysterious blood disorder in 1945. He was returned to the U.S. mainland in 1945 and entered Walter Reed Army General Hospital in Washington, D.C. for treatment. Some of his surviving letters to his sister Josephine make up part of the collection.","In 1945, Leona was reassigned to Walter Reed Hospital as a nurse and was allowed to help take care of her brother Vincent, who was dying. After his death on September 20, 1945, his funeral was held in Hazleton, PA at the local parish church.","Leona had been in touch with Francis C. Skilling, who was still assigned to the deactivated hospital at Key Field, MS. After he obtained leave, they reunited at his family's home in Chevy Chase, MD where she met his parents. They had been separated for nearly two and a half years. They then traveled by train to Pennsylvania where they were married on Monday, December 3, 1945.","He was assigned to Ft. Sill, OK as a medical officer where they lived until he was discharged from active duty in 1946.

Thompson was born in New York City in 1907, and received his bachelor's and master's degrees from Columbia University. Between 1931 and 1941 he taught public speaking at the City College of New York, studied at New York University, and traveled to Dublin to complete his dissertation, \"Fenianism and the Celtic Renaissance.\" Shortly after receiving his doctorate, Dr. Thompson was subpoenaed by the Rapp Coudert Committee of the New York State Legislature, investigated, and then suspended and fired by the CCNY for misconduct related to alleged Communist Party membership. He won reinstatement in December 1947 in a case covered by many histories of academic freedom. During the World War II period (1943-1946), he served as an Intelligence Officer in the U.S. Army, and after the war, he joined the Writing Department of Johns Hopkins University. Moving to Florida in 1953, he taught at Rollins College for two years before joining the faculty of the University of Tampa, retiring in 1976. He specialized in Irish literature, and during the early 1970s headed the university's Humanities Division. After retirement, Dr. Thompson taught Shakespeare at the Tampa Preparatory School until his death in 1989. He would best be remembered for his teaching and literary contributions. His novel Abraham's Wife focuses on a mixed race marriage between Cubans, the Ybor City section of Tampa, and the War of 1898. According to liner notes on the book jacket, Thompson visited Cuba many times in the 1920s, with his last visit for the purpose of studying at the University of Havana. He drew upon these experiences in creating the Cuban setting for an unpublished sequel, \"Abraham's Temptation.\" From the 1940s through the early 1980s, he reviewed hundreds of novels and non-fiction works for the Baltimore Sun, Roanoke Times, and the Tampa Tribune. He published literary criticism in professional journals, and like many an author, penned numerous articles, anthologies, and novels that remain unpublished. Dr. Thompson collected rare Anglo-Irish imprints and poetry broadsides, and donated substantial portions of these collections to the University of Tampa and the University of South Florida. He and his wife Marjorie spent many summers on extended bicycling vacations, which, along with his other interests, Dr. Thompson recorded in a meticulously detailed daily journal.","Note written by Thompson family","Thompson, Francis J.

Moving to Florida in 1953, he taught at Rollins College for two years before joining the faculty of the University of Tampa, retiring in 1976. He specialized in Irish literature, and during the early 1970s headed the university's Humanities Division. After retirement, Dr. Thompson taught Shakespeare at the Tampa Preparatory School until his death in 1989. He would best be remembered for his teaching and literary contributions. His novel Abraham's Wife focuses on a mixed race marriage between Cubans, the Ybor City section of Tampa, and the War of 1898. According to liner notes on the book jacket, Thompson visited Cuba many times in the 1920s, with his last visit for the purpose of studying at the University of Havana. He drew upon these experiences in creating the Cuban setting for an unpublished sequel, \"Abraham's Temptation.\" From the 1940s through the early 1980s, he reviewed hundreds of novels and non-fiction works for the Baltimore Sun, Roanoke Times, and the Tampa Tribune. He published literary criticism in professional journals, and like many an author, penned numerous articles, anthologies, and novels that remain unpublished. Dr. Thompson collected rare Anglo-Irish imprints and poetry broadsides, and donated substantial portions of these collections to the University of Tampa and the University of South Florida. He and his wife Marjorie spent many summers on extended bicycling vacations, which, along with his other interests, Dr. Thompson recorded in a meticulously detailed daily journal.","Note written by Thompson family"],"prefercite_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eFrancis J.
