We were in Memphis 3 years before Jason was born there in 1973. Before the marriage I had rented a small house on the eastern edge of Memphis near the junction of two interstates from a fellow employee of the Brotherhood Commission.
As I moved from Pioneer RA Consultant to being Pioneer RA Department Director I became the supervisor of Mike Davis, the editor of Probe magazine for Pioneer RAs whom we had brought in from Georgia as a newly-wed himself which also made us sort of best friends at the Brotherhood Commission. Mike & Penny had a son before we had Jason and we had a lot in common with them even going to the same church, Second Baptist. Lee & Liz Hollaway were a similar couple at the Brotherhood Commission, but we were not as close to them. Ginger had trouble being friends with anyone, but Mike & Penny had more patience with Ginger than just about anyone else.
I traveled in my work and in those early years tried to take Ginger with me when I could and she wanted to go, paying for her travel of course. That is shown in some of the scrapbook pages.
