When Dad moved his children to Las Vegas in 1957, Jeff hated to leave behind all his friends.
By the time Jeff turned 12 the next year in May, he had a small motorcycle. Summer came and jeff decided it was time to head back to utah for a visit.
Mom said she and Dad came home from a shopping rip to the store and found a note left for themon the piano. it was from Jeff. It read: "Never worry never fear, you're going to miss you little dear." he then informed them he was headed for Utah on his scooter and don't worry about him.
They immediately set off to findhim. From Las Vagas to St, George was a good two hours in a car going 60 miles per hour. mom envisioned all the bad things that could happen to a young boy on such a mode of transportaion.
They found him safely in Utah having a great time with a friend instead of somewhere alongside the road. there is no doubt Dad was relieved to find him. I wonder just what was said to his little buddy who was beginning to grow his own wings.
