He was born on the kitchen table in a house at 12th and Virginia on Oct 16th 1900. When he was 16 the family hit hard times, my Grandfather had lost his leg and my father had to quit school and go to work to help the family. My Grandmother who had a collection of beautiful furniture from the far east, made a deal with a local realtor to furnish empty "for sale" houses in exchange for free rent. My father fondly recalled a three story house at 19th and Prospect which had a dance floor in the third floor. He and his chums would hold roller skating parties in the room. Ah how times have changed since then. The discussion of the 19th and Prospect area brings back memories of my father’s tales of growing up in Seattle.
