And I could see that he, the boys, and the kids wouldn't want to stay on the farm with that kind of brain power, and I didn't want them to. I felt that it's a good thing that I made the change, because farming's been taught. Anyway, LK: So this was in the late '50s? YI: '58, '57. Coming back to going into a shell. You know, if I went into a shell, I'd brought my whole family into a shell, but since I've become progressive and met people and worked with people, Ron was student body president, liked high schools, four girls, three cheerleaders out of the four girls. The oldest girl was active in class--secretary, she was active. Jay was senior high class president. If I'd went into a shell, I'd brought them into a shell. They just followed me and excelled, and I'm grateful. Ron's an attorney. He has his own firm, corporate international attorney. J.D. and MBA graduate working in Washington D.C., all my four girls have teaching certificates, one's a counselor, and they've all married into a real •.. I'm real grateful for the in-laws that we've go~. Ron married Shigeki Ushio's oldest daughter. Karen married Ken Hunnell who's a CPA, that's the oldest daughter. Next daughter runs a Kara Candy. |
