THEN



[ Kathy Strawn - December 1972 ]

WAITING FOR WHS TO TIE UP IN CHARLESTON, SC

The Standley is returning home from a Med Cruise in Dec.1972. Kathy and I have only been married one year and we are expecting our first baby at the end of Dec. (Kathy is the one in the white coat that won't cover her belly) . The temp was 24 degrees when we pulled in; really cold for someone from deep south Texas!



NOW

N.A.S. Meridian, Miss.


[ John Strawn and Family - 1998 ]
