“Rose Fernandez, an acrobat who sometimes appeared in the same vaudeville lineups with Daisy and Violet, talked about the conflicting emotions that stirred within her whenever she saw them on stage: “You laughed at their girlish patter. You applauded them when they sang or played their saxophones and violins. You rose to your feet when they danced. But all the time that you were witnessing their triumphs on stage, you had tearing eyes and a lump in your throat. They were so radiant and beautiful, so cheery, so lovely as humans beings in every way. But yet they had such a heavy cross to bear.”
From “The Lives and Loves of Daisy and Violet Hilton by Dean Jensen.”
