"This spring after break-up I went set netting for summer Kings. King salmon soup tastes good, especially after not eating King salmon for so long. In late spring I started doing subsistence drift netting becaused I wanted to fill up our fish house as much as possible.

When commercial fishing started I worked for Mas. Inc. as a fish buyer with the tender boats. My deck hand helper was Herman George. Between openings I would go drifting for subsistence fish I'd also collect smoke wood for the fish house.

After commercial fishing was over, I volunteered to work with many others on building the new church.

Another exciting event for me this summer was my son, Robert, and Palassa got married. Robert wanted me too marry them, so I did. After the wedding a potlach was held in the community hall. I was glad too see everyone at the polatch. To those that helped with setting up the wedding and the to people that brought food to the hall I would like to say, 'Thank you, we couldn't of done it without you.'"
