Notes for Lloyd Albert (Spouse 1)
322. . . My dad will be 82 this year and has retired from farming and raising cattle. He even sold his horse a couple of years ago. He was in the 10th Mountain Division in Italy during WWII and can still tell stories of when he was a child through today. He is in very good shape for his age. He also worked full time at a sawmill in Kamiah besides running the ranch and taking care of his parents. [2003]
