RETTA GALE HUFFMAN


This is Retta Gale (McJunkin), born May 25, 1951 in Contra Costa CA, my step-sister. She got married to Michael Huffman and they have 2 sons. She and her family still live in Napa County, CA. We stayed in touch and facebook each other today. 
Her father, Robert McJunkin, was married to my mother. Before they were married I met and dated his son, Rob McJunkin who drowned in Lake Berryessa when I was just 15 yrs old. Rob was so handsome and very sweet. Our family, my father and mother and all my siblings,  had driven to Missouri  from California in August 1963, to see my Dads family and while there Rob had gone to a picnic with his family and that is where he drowned August 11, 1963. It was a sad day indeed when we got that call back East at my Grandparents house.
