2003—“Berdoo” Reunion |
Elden Ord |
From 1947-52, Pappy served in the bishopric of the San Bernardino First ward under Bishop Elden L Ord who, bless his heart, survived to speak to us at this reunion.
The Ords lived on Sierra Way, a half-mile from us; Sister Ord was only the second Leola of my acquaintance, and she and Mammy shared that exclusivity for decades. Their oldest son John was my best friend until they moved to Covina. We cobbled together a crystal radio set and took turns violating curfew to listen to the “Lone Ranger” and “Suspense” under the covers. Also jury-rigged a chess set out of coins. As Brent notes in his commemorative Section, the families of that bishopric continued socializing for decades after their release. |
