As written by John .
Robert Banks married his high school sweetheart Dorothy Lindgren in 1944 and a year later baby John became their first born.
The young family moved to the White Center district of Seattle in 1952 soon after the birth of Bob, their second son. Robert passed away a few months later from complications of diabetes. Life was hard for Dorothy and she often had to walk 2 miles to and from work, often at odd hours and bad weather.
White Center was a poor neighborhood economically but rich in other ways. The adults partied together on Saturday nights and the kids played and hung out together. In the summer, there was one continuous softball game in the vacant lot that lasted until dark every night.
