Today we passed through Jordan Valley, OR on our way to Yosemite.
My dad grew up here on a ranch named Sheaville. He graduated high school from here and apprenticed as a mechanic. My family lived here for a number of years after my parents were married and my mom was the mayor for a couple of years. Later we would return to go to the local rodeo, see family friends, and hunting.
I have many fond memories of making giant bubbles using metal hangers shaped into circles. Playing at the elementary school playground, riding our bikes around town, dressing up for the rodeo (yep, I remember a particle dark red western shirt I LOVED).
My dad’s funeral is Tuesday Sept 21, 2021. Rosary at 10am, funeral at 11am at Corpus Christi Catholic Church in Fruitland, ID.
