Naval Occupation: Electronic technician's mate, noncommissioned officer, USS New Mexico, 1945-46.
Bio: Possibly the world's most bizarre sense of humor; tells terrible puns with a straight face; he and his brother Bob
developed a "talent" of being able to lean far right and then far left in perfect unison without losing their balance; they
are very entertaining at family picnics. Favorite pet: a golden retriever named "Charley". Loves singing in the church
choir; after retirement he and Marjorie traveled to the Yukon, Alaska, South America and his travel itineraries were
legendary in their precision. As a boy, would take week long bicycle camping trips around Michigan; was an Eagle Scout.
His campfire skills (later used to great effect in the family fireplace) are so complicated and spectacular, one hates to set
a match to the final result. When the children were young, he invented an ongoing fairy tale/bedtime story in which all
three children were royalty, and in which all household messages were passed from Jeeves the Butler to the "Royal Guards".
The long line of echoing messages and subsequent replies, passed through the Royal Guards, went on for 10 minutes, much to
the delight of his children, not knowing it was a ploy which gave him time to think up the next plot line.

Photo: At the University of Michigan (far left) Bio: One sister, Kathryn Eugenia, who married Emery
Seestedt, they lived in Romulus, Michigan and Marine City, Michigan; 4 children: Ruth, Jean, Paul and Carl. Definitely born
at the wrong time - graduated from the University of Michigan School of Engineering at the top of her class at a time when
she had to make a choice between wife/mother, or a career in engineering. However, she never regretted her choice, and did
return to school in computer programming later in life; was a technical writer for the engineering firm which designed the
Supercollider in Texas. Hated swimming; in previous experiences had "sunk like a stone"; one of her most terrifying
moments was watching from behind a fence while 5-year old Jackie got out of the wading pool and jumped in the deep end of
the adult pool (luckily, she'd managed to raise a child who was "part fish"; no harm done). Always believed that life was
what you made of it; was always happy and cheerful; students she'd tutored at Pelham High School often returned to tell
her how much she'd improved their lives. Was always the medical expert and the font of knowledge who knew everything there
was to know about everything. Family saying: "I dunno, ask Mom."
