Rick's Perspective - 4/9/2018
Born in Powell Hospital in 1944 to a farm family. Older Sister Sharon (1939) was our Linchpin. Brother Tom (Earl Thompson,1943), set high standards for all of us, and Garry ( Garry Phil, B1945) was Mom's favorite. Dad farmed 80 acres East of Powell, and Mom owned the Coffee Cup Cafe for 18 years! I am a Vietnam combat Veteran, as is my older brother Tom. Went to So. Cal. for a visit in 1963. Traveled World Wide with ARCO (an oil company). Traveled world wide in 1st class! It got weird. Brought my Best Friend Marcia with me back home in 1992. Still Here. The Big Horn Basin is the best place on the planet. Read More
