Joe and Juanita's wedding---June 7, 1959(we sent a copy to his sister on 09/27/2007)
Joe was born and raised in Kansas, USA. He was born in his Grandfather's house. Joe and his Mom and Dad lived with his Grandparents (his Mom's parents) for six years. They bought a house and had it moved on land up from his Grandparents.
He went to a one room school and then went in town for one year of junior high and his high school years. He walked one mile to the one room school, there and back home (total 2 miles). His Dad worked on the railroad and his Mom was a wonderful homemaker. He is the oldest of six children. His niece and her family live in the home where Joe was raised.
Joe joined the United States Air Force, much to his Mom's sorrow. After his training in San Antonio, Texas, he was stationed at Gunter A.F.B. in Montgomery, Alabama.
I was born and raised in Alabama, USA. I was born in a hospital in Montgomery. I lived in many different places. That's just the gypsy in my family! (Just kidding) I have two sisters. I am the middle child. We lived on Maxwell A.F.B. when I met Joe. I was also a senior in high school.
We met at the skating rink in Montgomery. I graduated on May 28, 1959. Joe and I got married June 7, 1959. Joe was stationed in France, July of 1959. I went over there in November of '59. We have lived in France, Texas, Hawaii, and Alabama.
God Bless, JW
