The (Proud) Gadfly On His Grandsons

Teacher: Grandson Michael was 9-1/2 when he came to live with us, and one of the first things I did was teach him how to handle a rod and reel. Today, 15 years later, Mike is passing on what he learned to his girlfriend's daughter, little Kadence, shown here with a largemouth bass caught in a local pond.

Veteran: Colby, a Navy Seabee reservist, soon returns to Iraq for his second tour in support of the Marine Corps. Doesn't say much about his first tour, other than that he helo'd all over the country. He's a Yukon High School graduate and skilled carpenter.

Graduate: Kevin just finished high school (he's been home-schooled) and is shown here in a 2-seat Citabora after taking off from Clarence Page Airport for his first flight. He's a competitive marksman, helps his parents with concealed carry license classes they conduct and has multiple medals as an air pistol shooter.

Next: The granddaughters.
