Ray Kimble, was entwined in the life of Frank king by virtue of his marriage to Frank's sister Vera, Ray and Vera took in 5 of Frank's children when they were disserted and raised them for varying periods of their lives as well as help fund my biological mother's flight by car to a new life in California with my two biological full sisters, Sherry and Viktoria. Fortunately for me, I remained in the care of Ray Kimble, so my exposure to Ray Kimble, was from an infant through High School graduation and enlistment in the Air Force
Unfortunately for me, I did not have the opportunity to watch my two younger sisters grow into beautiful, young ladies. They did not share the same opportunity I had.
However, from all accounts I have heard, they fared well with our mother.
I did later, have the privilege of giving as I by her decision.
Sherry away in marriage before my first tour in Vietnam. Unfortunately, i was in Vietnam when Viktoria got married.
My Sister Viktoria lives to rescue Horses and Dogs.
My Sister Sherry
is an excessive compulsive Cat rescuer (my opinion only) who has often rescued and taken care of 10 or more at a time.
I am a dog lover myself, who except for my 8 years in the military, has always had a dog, even before I could walk. Most were purebred cockers or English Setters, but also a rescued Irish setter and several rescued mixed breed dogs.
They were and always will be family to me. Cared for like family,
loved and spoiled like family, buried like family and mourned and remembered like family for the rest of my life. I can recall each one by name and often do, with an "I Love You." added with each.

An older half-sister I never met, or at least was not old enough to remember. Apparently, she, her brother Robert and brother Richard were three more of Frank Kings children that Ray Kimble had a positive influence on.
