Leone Waters Winters Randall
1910-1998
My name is Leone Waters Winters Randall Russell, what a name! I was born at Rigby, Jefferson County, Idaho on April 28, 1910, in a house that had been converted from a tinker shop. My parents are Claude Sidney Waters and Charlotte Hix. I was the third child in a family of five: two older brothers and two younger brothers. Most of my young life was lived in Rigby.
We never lacked for food or clothing, but we were not what you would call wealthy in material things. What we did have was plenty of love.
One time we lived out at Clark Quarter at Grandpa Water’s place and dad was riding a horse back and forth to the Golden Rule in Rigby where he worked. Since I was the only girl and the light in my father’s eyes I was spoiled. I used to think I could not let my father go any place. I wanted him with me all the time. One time, dad had an Indian horse and his horse got away. Dad thought he would go to the Blackfoot Indian Reservation to see if his horse was there. I cried and kicked up such a fuss to think he was leaving that he forgot about the horse.
