Colorado Historian, Author, and Photographer
"Expasticatingly" precious father of Julie (Simon) and Mandie, grandaddy of Cameron and Kyren, son of Robert and Gladys, brother of Shelley (Dave), Greg (Beth), Roger, and Bruce.
Forever in Love with Dorothy McLeod.

Gone now forever-the bison, silvery rails and Native son.
