Arthur Vidich with his Mother circa 1963


Pauline Vidich was the real head of the Vidich household and, throughout his life, Art was forever mindful of this hierarchy. His mother managed the family's affairs and made sure Art did his homework and took care of family chores.

Pauline was fortunate to have three daughters who not only served as baby sitters for young Art but also served as his surrogate mothers. For Art, this matriarchy not only had a profound influence on his emotional sensibilities it defined his later expectations of married life.
