****Back story. My mom and dad were married in 1957 at the very young ages of 15 years old and 17 years old. Mom was pregnant at the time and Dad wanted to marry her. My dad is Hispanic, and my mom is Irish. Mom's sisters and brothers were very much against my parents getting married. But my grandparents weren't. Both my grandmothers went to the courthouse with my parents and signed the consent for them to get married. My parents were married for 66 years and had seven children. Mom passed away on April 2, 2023, and Dad is still alive at the time of this article writing which is March 2025. These are the stories of their life according to them. ******
Elvis Comes to Town - by Dad
Dorie and I had been going out for some time, when she told me one afternoon after school that Elvis was coming to town. All the girls in school were so excited to go. They couldn't believe that Elvis was coming to Montana. I asked Dorie if she wanted to go. She said no. She didn't much like Elvis. So, we didn't go. A few days later she climbed in the car after school, and she was laughing. I asked her what was so funny. She said all the girls had dressed up and went to see Elvis. They came to school the next day madder than hornets. They saw Elvis alright. Elvis the monkey. All the hype was for Elvis the monkey. I am sure glad we didn't go.
