Zona Boy post 06/14/76
Today I used my high school graduation present and flew to Portland, Oregon to stay with my brother. During a layover in Phoenix I watched the debut of a new game show called The Gong Show. Not too bad. People do off the wall acts in front of three judges and try to finish before the judges decide they really suck and hit a big gong. If they last the judges give them a score and the best score wins a gong trophy.
I was awed by the greeness of Portland.
Today was Monday and my brother goes over to the Kerr house for dinner every Monday. He's dating one of the four daughters. I met her and her parents and one of the other daughters. I instantly fell in love.
Since that date:
I ended up falling for two of the Kerr girls. Of course way back then I was incredibly shy and could not tell them. One was a year older than me and the other a year younger. I spent five months in Portland (Gresham) spinning my wheels and not really getting anywhere.
The two Kerr girls are now in what I've heard described as unhappy marriages from my brother who was told by the sister he used to date. That makes me sad because these girls were beautiful souls.
My brother went to half-brother and then nothing at all to me after he failed to show up to the funeral of the man who raised him, my father, after his father decided he wanted nothing to do with him.
I'd love to see Kathie Kerr and her sister Debbie Kerr again.

sometimes though it just is not meant to be, even if you had told them how you felt, some people just aren't fated to be in your life. but their memories - those can last forever.
