Stephen Nelson

52 years in 8000 characters? Married Shanna Montgomery 1971, 7 children, divorced 1984; Was lucky enough to find and marry the perfect companion. Lived in Layton till 1988, moved to Logan and then to Japan in January of 2010 because my wife's wonderfulness as a Music Educator was recognized by the US Department of Defense, who convinced her to relocate to Yokosuka, Japan, and teach for the DoDDS Schools, where we will both work until 2017, when we can retire. I currently work with the Learning Impaired children in the Special Education Dept. Have performed in a Bluegrass band, “The Better Half,” for 29 years in Utah, Idaho and Wyoming...still making toes tap!

I was a wall flower who bloomed late in life: 2 days after graduation. John Cloward and I were/are best friends. Larry Ames was also a very good friend, if anyone knows any details about his death, I would really like to know.
