Lester Cline of Bishop, CA, is my grand father! He married Vada and adopted my father, John Swanson. John continued in Lester's tradition of excellence on horse back, participating in rodeos and roping wild mustangs in the West. John was also a drafted Vietnam veteran. He married my mother, Karla, and they had me in 1982, and my sister Jana in 1986, just months before Lester's death. My earliest memories are of riding with my Papa Lester. Unfortunately my father John broke contact with us in 1992 and I never had the opportunity to become the cowboy that my father and grandfather were. I am currently a United States Marine, and Jana is an optician assistant in Eugene, OR.
