BG: I was born in Phoenix, Arizona in 1924 at 20th Street just south of Osborn which at that time was our family farm, and was quite a distance from downtown Phoenix. I started school at Creighton Elementary on McDowell Road. We used to walk to Indian School Road and 20th Street to catch the bus to the elementary school. Unfortunately my father had diabetes and he became quite ill. We had some property in Phoenix and we moved when I was six years old. My father died when I was eight and we lived on 16th Street just south of Van Buren on Monroe Street.
