My Early Years

Gary and me in 1947

I was born in March of 1945 near Seattle, WA

 

My brother, Gary is 2 1/2 years older than I am.  We have a younger sister, Dona.

I think this was taken at a county fair.

My mother and father - 1950

This photo was taken in front of my Grandmother's house.  I am the one in the black cap and bib overalls on the right.  The other little girl is Mary Lou Kantner who was visiting her grandmother next door. My grandmother told me they put the log across the driveway to stop people from driving right up to their front door.
