"Ole" Jim: Welcome to my Hideaway everyone! I realize my web page will be
of no interest to many, but I just wanted to do it. My wife, Dorothy, and I have been married 57 years. We have
two daughters, Amy & Stacy. Amy is married to Mr. Brian and they live here in Houston. Stacy is married to Mr. Richard,
they live in Dallas, Texas.
I was a newspaper pressman for 47 years (web-letter-off-set) and
member of the International Printing Pressmen And Assistants Of North America (GCUI.) I retired in 1994 from the Houston Chronicle. I have worked for a few newspapers: The News-Star, Shawnee, Okla, The
Oklahoman & Times, Oklahoma City, Okla, The Miami Herald and Miami News and the Miami Beach Journal, Miami, Fla.-
The Houston Post and Houston Chronicle, Houston, Texas.
My brother, Jerry, and I enlisted in the United States
Marine Corps in 1945, got our boot at Parris Island, SC. Stationed in north China in Tientsin and Peiping, China. (1946).
We were recalled and were with Easy Co. 2nd Bn. 1st Regiment. 1st Marine Division in Korea. (1951). There are a few pages
on this also. "OooooRah"
(Jerry passed away on August 11, 2009 in River Falls,
Alabama. I sure do miss him.)
