Her parents let her walk around that town even before she started school. Imagine parents doing that in 2002.  Her family moved a lot when she was young. In this 1952 photo they were living in Hankamer. We have visited there recently and think we have found the apartment they lived in there.

The picture was made in the gym where I first saw her running across the gym. I told my two friends at that time that she was the girl I was going to marry. I was in 7th grade so she must has been in 6th grade or 12 years old. She was stunningly developed.   The "Hole-in-the-Wall Gang" outside Kerrville, Texas. Now you know why we stay married!
