Uncle Lee Roy Stockton laying out the facts to aunt Pam (Ashcroft) Corbett, Roland, Oklahoma, 1983. Uncle Lee Roy and aunt Pam were two people very dear to my heart. Uncle Lee Roy died in Jan. 2003 from a massive heart attack. He was 75 years old. His remains were cremated and buried in the National Cemetery in Fort Smith. Aunt Pam died in Oct. 2002 at the age of 67 from cancer in North Little Rock, Arkansas. She was the wife of uncle James "Jimmy" Corbett.

In 1987, aunt Elinor and uncle Lee Roy visited our families in Mesa, Arizona. Here they are with brother Art's wife Denise (Geer) Wall and their two youngest, twins Jeff and Heather Wall. This spot is as far as you can go in the Superstition wilderness area with a motor vehicle. This picture is near the First Water trail head into the Wilderness area located near Apache Junction, Arizona. This was the dead of summer and only a few unwise tourists make such a trek into the wilderness when temperatures usually reach more than one hundred degrees before noon. Art and I thought of ourselves as seasoned Arizonians who could get away with taking our relatives to the 2nd most famous place in Arizona (after the Grand Canyon) 30 miles east of Phoenix.

Aunt Elinor and uncle Lee Roy with Superstition Mountain in the background. The mountain rises some 4000 feet above the desert around it, but the angle this picture was taken makes it appear much smaller. The highest point on the mountain is visible in the back ground. This excursion was made memorable when brother Art locked his keys in his car, the only vehicle all of us had come in. This is not something you want to happen in the Arizona desert in summer time. But, Art and I valiantly saved the day by hiking out miles to the nearest service station to obtained a door shim, hiked back and rescued everyone. At least that's our story and we're sticking to it.

I cropped this photo, which originally included Linda husband Charles (Wayne) Rhodes and some friends. This is such a good picture it was a must for me to include it here. I have no idea of the date this was taken, but it appears to be the 1980's.

Cousin Linda (Stockton) and husband Charles Wayne Rhodes shortly after the birth of their youngest son Ben with oldest son Jeff on his dad's knee, in 1973. The boy's full names are Charles Jeffery and Benjamin Garrett Rhodes.
