Sherman County Death
Notices and Obituaries |
| "Swimming was
a big deal, and whenever we could get loose and get to the [Columbia] river,
we swam. We mostly learned on our own, pushing a railroad tie or stick
until we got confident...The school janitor went to a lot of work and built
a float with a low diving board and that's where I first...dove in. It
was cold...but the sand was warm."
