When Jack and Ada were married, Jack gave her a wedding ring with six diamonds. They decided that six children would make a lovely family, and now they had 3 boys and 3 girls. All was perfect in 1952.
They were now living in Phoenix at 5120 N. 13th place. Jack had a good job at Reynolds Metals and had purchased and developed into lots, some land at 16th street and Rose Lane in Phoenix, where they planned on building a new home.

Mary, I am sooo glad you sent me the email to look at your blog. I LOVE IT!!! These are things that I didn't know.
I loved doing things with Helen when we moved to Phoenix. Happy Birthday, Helen!
I just finished reading the rest of the blog and I never knew your mother was born in Blackfoot. That is just 1/2 hour drive from where I live! Interesting!
