Happy Bithday Ken Brown

Today is Ken Brown's Birthday. He was born in Grants Pass Oregon.
He is 82 years young. He always takes on life with enthusiasm and inspires other to live their life in the same way. He is a photographic artist. He embraces photoshop. He is married to my mother, Wanda. They met and married at college. They share the same college background as my wife and I, Western State College in Gunnison Colorado. He enjoys fly fishing. And tying his own flies. His favorite fly is the orange asher.

He currently lives in Morgan Hill, California. He fought in World War 2. He was on the light cruiser,the Montpelier.

He taught in South San Francisco for 43 years. His main grade taught was the 5th grade. His students learned to sew, square dance and do many things that helped them to become more complete people in their later lives.

He is a lively guy who enjoys his backyard fruit orchard. I admire his knowledge and his engagement with life.

He has an older sister, Betty that lives in Southern California.

He has three children. Micheal Sue, and Kelly are my younger sisters. Kelly has an extensive blog that is referenced at the bot†om of this blog. All of his children are married and working. Kelly and I are speech and language therapists in the public school. Micheal Sue is employed by the Live Oak school district in Santa Cruz as their technology manager.

Dad has four grandchildren. Heather, Linzi, Cambell, and Acacia.

I think that dad's greatest enjoyment comes from family get togethers.

So here's to you on your birthday Ken Brown.. Happy Birthday!
