Hi Toni,
It is wonderful to hear from you. Your dad and I were in junior high when we met. He was the greatest guy I had ever met. He was a gentleman and loving. We were in love as much as young teenagers could be.
I was sure he was my soul mate. I loved how he respected me and how he was so caring and gentle and at the same time very adventurous and so much fun to be around.
It wasn't easy because I was a home grown Utahn and he was a new comer from Texas. We had so much in common and most people just couldn't understand that - including my parents.
At Christmas he gave me a string of pearls that I know he had to save quite a while to but. It was in a pink velvet box shaped like an oyster shell. I still have it in my cedar chest.
We were separated when he moved to Idaho. We wrote for a long time...and then somehow went our separate ways. I thought of him so often. I had dreams of being with him almost every night. Time passed and we both led separate lives. So many times I looked him up on the internet but didn't go any further. When his obituary came up - I cried and felt a loss that I didn't expect.
I would like to know more about his life. Would you email me directly? My email address is rraf2@comcast.net. I am still in Utah. I have a couple photos I will send if you would like them.
I am so pleased that you responded to this message.
