| My mama died when I was born and my papa died a few years ago. |
| She accented papa and mamma on the last syllable and leaned forward and looked upward like a shirtwaist Madonna. |
| Antonia de Vito's family in Italy is flooded out of their home in the 1950s, so they all pack their things to join papa in Edmonton. |
| You may have helped your papa or mama plant seeds in the garden or in the flowerbed. |
| How glad dear papa would have been to come and stay with us, and botanize and geologize amongst your rocks there! |
| My papa was walking to the midwife to get my mama's painkillers, because she was pregnant and was very sore. |
