Our family was from Great Falls Montana.  That is where John and is siblings, Trudy, Shelly, Kathy, Gary and twin sister Jeannie were born.  I remember when John and I were little the trouble he use to get into.  I remember a time when John took $20 out of my moms purse and went to the small market by our house and John bought some candy and didn't get his change.  The man at the store knew our family.  His name was Johnny. He called my mom and told her that John was just there and forgot his change.  Meanwhile John went to this place called the V where we always use to hang out and he ate up all of the candy he had just bought.  When he went home my mom was so mad and he got spanked.  I also remember one morning we had a real bad blizzard and John went out side to get the clothes pin holder that was hanging on the clothes line because he felt sorry for it and my mom was so mad because he had gone outside during a very bad blizzard.  I have so many memories of John growing up.  We came to Calfornia when we were about 10 or 11 yrs. old.  We lived in Garden Grove until our parents bought a home in Anaheim and that is where we graduated from High School.  He got odd jobs here and there.  He got married when he was 18 but that didn't work out and after 1 yr. he was divorced. He moved to Jackson Hole Wyoming and lived there for about 10 years and he loved it there.  He lost his job and then lived in Mt. Pelier Idaho where my sister Kathy and her husband lived.  He then moved back to California and ended up living in Norco to be near where he took care of horses and worked doing pony rides.  He had such a love for horses.  Unfortunately he got bladder cancer and had to have his bladder removed and they had to construct a bladder.  He didn't live to long after that.  I know that he is in heaven with my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and we will see each other again.
