subject: Grandma Henley question
Hi Aunt Mae!
Do you happen to know the date (or approximate date) Grandma and Grandpa Henley divorced?
I do know she married Buell Charles Shepard on 6 Feb 1959. As I'm sure you remember, he was an alcoholic and also abusive to Grandma. She soon divorced him as well. I don't know when they divorced either.
Any help you can provide would sure be appreciated.
How have you been doing lately?
I look forward to hearing from you soon!
Lots of Love,
Dave

I graduated from HS June 1947...one yr @ WSU, one Yr @ Central Wash in Ellensburg, then 12 months @ Providence Hosp. in Seattle studying to become a Registered Record Librarian (RRL)..on par with a Registered Nurse (RN). Paul & I married Jan. 26, 1951, I believe, and both Paul Sr. & Bernice were at the wedding...I had a job @ Sacred Heart Hospital, Spokane, & Paul was teaching @ Hutton Elementary school in Spokane, & because of the Korean War was going to be drafted so he decided to join the Marine Corps, & was sent to Camp LeJuene, No. Carolina. That's where Kathy Jo was borne.
We were in another world then & I don't know when they divorced. I do know he was living with a woman in Tri Cities area when he died, circa 1964. Bernice lived in a little house about 3 miles from my childhood home. We were in our new house on Dell Drive & Paul went to his funeral. That's all I know Dave.
Hope it answere a question or two.
XO & Daily & Eternal Blessings, Aunt Mae
