All of the children of Vic and Alberta passed their earthly assignments and did so in a remarkable manner. They all grew up in the small home on the southeast corner of Main and 6th North in Nephi. She taught her kids good education at home, and all had their assignments' at home with the sheep and chickens and then when the boys came along, each one of them had there duties as well. And they all pitched in to help Vic's parents on their Nortonville, Utah farm. The daughters were intrigued with the importance of educations and followed a pursuit in that field of work. Richard was the oldest boy and liked to figure out how to keep their animal's in good health, so he got his start in following Spin Mac around to learn from his "Farm Doc" ways. A lot of those tricks did work well and Richard became an excellent Veterinary in Cache Valley, and was proud to do his own farming with his Shire horses. Son Gordon kept his farming instincts and passed them on to his kids, but also knew how to build rock solid homes. Prior to the death of Alberta, I had the opportunity to visit her at an unnamed hospital in Salt Lake. I felt bad for her as she was so cold she was shivering and not able to get anyone to help her, even after I asked. I went to where they kept extra blankets and brought one to her and stayed with her. I enjoyed my one on time with her. And son Sherm Jones was a delightful man that lived longer than most would think and always had that wide grin and good friends with Cotton Rosser when he came to town. There will be a time when we will all meet Vic, Alberta, Melba, Lenora, Barbara, Mildred, Darlene, Richard, Gordon and Sherm. All with Angelic Wings. In the birthday photo, Alberta is having her 6th BD Birthday Party in 1913.
