Black and white photograph of Mary Biollo, Michael Biollo and Bob the dog, Venice, Alberta, ca. 1925. The Biollo family lived in this makeshift lean-to which was attached to the family store called the Venice Mercantile. The children's father Oliver John Biollo was one of the settlers who established the Venice-Hylo community in 1914. In addition to running a farm and managing the store, he served as the community's first postmaster.
Mary Biollo Doyle passed away in 2012.
