In their words
I came to Oregon because my husband is in the Agronomy Department at Oregon State University.
The foreman tapped him on his shoulder and told him, "Check the gun, it's not allowed on the job." Dad's clothing cutting shears have been exhibited at the Homer Museum (Oregon State University.)
