Linda's Uncle Ed.
This is Linda's uncle Ed Stiles, in his bear skin coat. Linda's mother wrote a poem about him and his funeral.
Ed always seemed larger than life. He was a salesman, selling cigars and beer and an avid sportsman.
Why did we move to Florida in 1982
My wonderful, beautiful, smart wife. Linda was hired by the Pinellas County Coroner, Dr. Shiner, to set up a Virus Lab at All Children’s Hospital in St Petersburg. Linda was a Microbioligst at St.Joseph’s Hospital in Fort Wayne and had established the Virus Lab there, after studying at the Center for Disease Control in Atlanta, Georgia. Dr. Shiner had read an article that Linda published and called her, offering a job in St Petersburg. We sold our house and Linda, Lisa and I headed to Florida. We stayed 30 years.
