Veryl Gloria Moore was born November 15, 1931 in
Spokane, Washington. Her parents lived near
Priest Lake, Idaho at the time. Because of
possible snow storms, Iris and Jack Moore rode a
sleigh out to a road, then transferred to an
automobile to drive to Spokane until her birth
day. During her youth she lived in Coolin,
Idaho, Spokane, Washington, Dover, Idaho, and
Bonners Ferry.
Veryl attended Bonners Ferry High School and
graduated in 1949. She played a flute purchased
from the Sears and Roebuck catalogue. After high
school, she attended Whitworth College to take
courses for nursing school at Deaconess

Veryl worked in the University of Idaho
Infirmary while Don finished his business
coursework. Don and Veryl lived a short time in
Fort Benning, Georgia. Later Veryl worked as a
Registered Nurse in Junction City, Kansas. Don
received army orders to report to Japan. During
that time, Veryl lived in a trailer house and
