Papa graduated from Promontory University in the Spring of 1996 when he was
22 years old. Like I mentioned before, he met a lot of friends at college,
and some of them belonged to a religion called Mormonism. He didn’t believe
in the same things that they did, but they still got along with each other.
A few of them had families that lived in Missouri, so they invited him out
for a big graduation celebration. They had actually already been to a few
other parties, but this was the only one that was over a thousand miles
away. It took them three days to drive all the way there, which they did to
save money on plane or train tickets. They drove through Wyoming and
Nebraska on their way there, but of course, he had already been to those two
states anyway. They slept the first night in Cheyenne, Wyoming, where some
of his old friends lived. Remember that he lived in Buffalo, Wyoming for
about ten years when he was younger. On the next night, he once again helped
his college buddies with somewhere to sleep. He still had lots of family in
Grand Island, Nebraska. He wanted to help them with where to sleep because
his friends were going to give him somewhere to sleep once they arrived in
Missouri. They lived in Independence, Missouri. The party was really big,
with I think over a hundred people! Some of them were just family members,
but others were other graduates who had gone to schools in other parts of
the country. He stayed with one of his friends’ parents for three nights. He
slept on the floor in a bedroom with five other people. Can you imagine?
When it was over, he took the train back home to Idaho alone.
