Produktbeschreibung

The hard work and dreams of An Immigrant, A Homesteader, And Sheep are alive in family memories even though there's very little evidence the ranch had existed as a busy, happy place. Kids and grandkids, the bleat of several thousand sheep , the bawling of cattle , and the neigh of the horses as well as the beautiful views, the orchards , and that smell of sage ; all are in the past but my hope is that this book will record my family's history for generations to come.

Autorenporträt

Grace Baker Larson was born in Hot Springs, MT in 1940. Her delivery was by a midwife. Her grandmother, Mae Poloson, and her aunt , Fay Poloson Haynes , cared for her during her infancy while her mother , Marie Baker Poloson worked . She spent every summer and holiday with her grandparents, Aunt Fay, and uncles, Bert & Fred. Grace idolized every one of them and is still grateful for being able to share so many ranch related things with all of them! She is very proud of the courage her grandparents had which lead to a much better life for their family. Grace is not an author but a recorder of family history. She recently moved to Kalispell, MT from Forsyth, MT after the death of her husband, Lyle, December 16, 2013. She is closer to family and the area she grew up in. After her mother and father divorced Marie married Warren Debs McBroom. Grace moved with her mother to the Big Arm ranch that Debs owned. Her sister, Alice Mc Broom Kranzler, was born in 1943. Debs was the father Grace lost (Clarence Galen Baker) when she was 8 months old through divorce. A jack of all trades and a master of none describes Grace. She raised 5 children: 3 sons and 2 daughters. Daughter, Robin, died from MS when she was 41 years old in 2006. Grace owned and operated a Day Care Center in Red Wing, MN. After that she learned to paint and became a Journeyman Painter. She was the first woman craftsman hired by the Anaconda Company. When she received a severe neck injury, she went to college for a degree in Chemical Dependency Counseling. After graduation she practiced for over 14 years in Rosebud County, MT. After she retired from counseling, she and her husband raised registered Tennessee Walking Horses. Grace developed a registry for half breed TWH. She sold that to a business in Los Osos, CA in 2008. It is still growing and has been very successful. In retirement she wants to write her own autobiography and tell others about the wonderful promise of God's Kingdom. She believes her loved ones will be resurrected to a Paradise Earth! which her grandmother, Mae Poloson, had referred to when Grace was 12 years old. Mae told Grace she thought she would live to see the 1000 years of peace.
