As a young boy growing up a couple miles from a small town and having a father who had cancer of the throat and heart problems we didn't have much money. All through life I worked on improving my life and proud of what I have done without any college. Working for RCA on three different programs, I was given a chance to learn a lot and given lots of responsibilities during my life as you will see in the book. Growing up outside a small town of 2,500 was a challenge. We lived about 2 miles from town with 7 1/2 acres of land with most of it in trees except about one acre around the house. We had at times a cow for milk and a pig for meat. We always had lots of chickens laying eggs. We always had big gardens which I got to weed but my mother would pick the vegetables. A neighbor boy would come over sometimes and we would sneak into the garden and eat some fresh peas out of the pod or sneak some strawberries. In school I took a lot of classes that helped me get my first job in Alaska as a Secretary. I had a lot of fun in school and was very popular as I have a great sense of humor which I still like making people laugh. For the last 25 years I have put the Red Suit on at Christmas. I was the official Santa in Leavenworth, Wa. for five years. I rode in a horse drawn carriage into the downtown area. I would get my picture taken hundreds of times per day. I am still very active. I am on the activities committee where we live. I do hope you enjoy the book as I have had a fun life.
