For a while now you have had the pleasure :) of viewing the picture of my mother's father, Floyd Cline. So I thought I would give you a brief review of what we know of Grandpa Floyd.
Grandpa Floyd worked hard all his life for other people. When he was 21 he went to work for Great Grandpa Christensen and married Grandma Mary when she turned 21. Grandma Mary was stricken with Tuberculosis and died at 39 leaving Grandpa Floyd with three girls to raise.
I can't imagine how difficult it was to raise three girls while working 11 hour days on a country Farm, but he did his best had depended on neighbors to watch over them while he was gone.
Grandpa Floyd remarried a few years later and eventually moved to Oregon to work on the Columbia Gorge Dam.
What do you know about your grandpa? Is he still alive? Then don't you think you should find out while he is still here to ask? Be patient, make a list of questions and take a pocket recorder! You will be amazed at the wealth of information he is!
