Mother was a hard working woman. She was a good cook. She always had something for us to eat when we got home from school. Her hobby was fishing. We always had extra kids staying with us and Mother always had plenty for everyone to eat. Sh knew how to harness a horse and fasten it to a buggy so she could take the kids fishing.
I only remember Dad working on two jobs, the railroad and working in the hay. He made his living by trading. He was quite a trader. He loved horses. He loved to watch a good horse race. He was a religious man in a way. He didn't attend church but he was always willing to help someone in need. He lived a pretty clean life. For a time he did drink and use tobacco.
