I am writing this for my dear wife, and love of my life, Gail, for our five children and their spouses, and our current 13 grandchildren (and what I expect will be several more), so that they might know about my life and experiences, and that they may learn from them how to be happy, no matter what experiences come their way, and how to turn to God and let Him map their course and path through life. I do it also so that my children and grandchildren, and great grandchildren will have some idea about their heritage through me to a group of extraordinary people who gave me life and those who gave them life…my parents and grandparents. At the same time, I want to ensure that my descendants know that life is not always easy. My father taught me a long time ago that if you think that any family or person is "perfect" and that everything seems to be going perfectly for them when it is difficult for yourself, then one of two things is occurring: 1) You are simply feeling sorry for yourself and you need to stop, look around, and count the unbelievable number of blessings you have...even if you do have troubles. Or, the second thing is simply this... 2) You do not know the other family or people as well as you think you do. Everyone has difficulties. It is a part of life...and in the end, the hardships are blessing because they help mold us and act to knock off the rough spots and, if we will be humble and look for the good...those hardships teach us so much and make us better people. It is the way of life. I will try and make this somewhat multi-media and include pictures wherever I can so that the reader gets a better feel and sense of some of the things I talk about and things that I experienced throughout my life, and saw in the lives of others around and near to me. 2.0 My Birth and parents’ families (1925 to 1956 and my birth) I was born on June 19, 1956, at Baylor Hospital in Dallas, Texas. Since my parents were good Southern Baptists, I was born at Baylor Hospital, a Baptist Hospital in Dallas, Texas. We lived at 3933 Van Ness Lane in Dallas when I was born. It was my parent’s second house in Dallas, the first being just up the street on Van Ness at the corner. Baylor Hospital My mom was Georgia Mae Spacil, and my dad Albert Lee Head Jr., both born in 1925 during the great depression. Albert Lee Head and Jewel Ollie Darden, and Albert Spacil and Albina Machu were my grandparents. My Dad’s family had roots deep in the United States, both sides back to Colonial days and the 1600s in America. My Grandparents holding my Dad as a baby My Dad (Left) and his parents (middle) and his sister, my Aunt Judy in Alabama My Grandad Head served in the US Navy in World War I. He was a baseball player (catcher) in the depression for a minor league team of the New York Yankees. Both of them then taught High School in Goodwater, AL. My Dad, with his parents at his High School Graduation My father served in the US Navy in World War II. He was an officer aboard an LCI (Landing Craft Infantry) and his ship landed US Marines on Islands in the Pacific. He joined in 1942 when he was 17. My Dad with his parents after enlisting in the US Navy ROTC Program in 1942 The Navy sent him into ROTC at Auburn University in Alabama, and then later, at Rice University in Houston, Texas. In late 1943, he finished his ROTC training and was shipped off to war in the Pacific. Albert Lee Head by LCI (L)-690 that he served on as an Officer When he got home in 1946, it wasn’t long before he got together with the girl he had hoped would wait, Georgia Mae Spacil. They were married in 1948. Now a few words about my mother and her family. My Mom’s parents, Albina Machu and Albert Spacil in Houston in the 1940s My Mom, Georgia on the left, and her mother on the right in the 1930s. My grandfather Spacil served in the US Army in World War I. They had five daughters and a

  • RSC Style Guide
    Religious Studies Center Style Guide, 1 October 2018 Authors who submit manuscripts for potential publication should generally follow the guidelines in The Chicago Manual of Style, 17th ed. (Chicago: The University of Chicago Press, 2017) and Style Guide for Editors and Writers, 5th ed. (Salt Lake City: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 2013). This style guide summarizes the main principles in the other style guides and lists a few exceptions to their guidelines. Formatting 1. Use double-spacing throughout the manuscript and the endnotes. Use one-inch margins, and insert page numbers at the bottom of the page. Use a Times New Roman 12-point font for both the body of the manuscript and the notes. Use only one space after periods. 2. If you have images, add captions and courtesy lines (such as courtesy of Church History Library, Salt Lake City) to the Word file. However, do not insert images in the Word files; submit them separately. Images should be 300 dpi or better (TIFF or JPG files). File names and captions should match (Fig. 1.1 = chapter 1, figure 1). Headings 3. Update: Include headings to break up the text. First-Level Headings First-level headings should be flush left and bolded, as in the example above. Capitalize internal words except for articles (a, an, and the), conjunctions (and, but, or, for, so, and yet), prepositions, and the word to in infinitive phrases. Second-Level Headings Second-level headings should be flush left and italicized. Capitalize like first-level headings. Third-level headings. Third-level headings should be italicized, followed by a period, and run in to the text; capitalization should be handled sentence-style (capitalize the first word and proper nouns).
