The Sash Guy (George) was born at the
Heights Hospital and lived on 12-1/2 Street, near the corner of Beverly
in 1950 in the Houston Heights.
My Grandmother lived nearby on 11-1/2
Street, and my Uncle in the Western Heights.
We later moved to E 28th Street, in the
Sunset Heights.
I attended Hamilton Junior High and Regan
High School.
We currently live on the South end of
Beauchamp in the Woodland Heights.
Being mechanically and structurally inclined,
I came up as the families designated home maintenance and repair expert
for our bungalows.
The most challenging of these tasks,
as we did not have air conditioning in the early years, was to insure that
everyone's windows always operated smoothly.
I have studied Historic Home Renovation
with the University of Kansas, and am mentored by Terence Meany, out of
Seattle Washington.
I have completely refurbished our current
bungalow, and what you see today is nearly exact as it appeared when initially
built in 1936.
