<strong>RICHARD</strong> <strong>ALLEN</strong> <strong>SCOTT</strong><br />

THROUGH THE YEARS<br />

My vacation at <strong>the</strong> end of <strong>the</strong> summer and when <strong>the</strong><br />

replacement Corporal arrived, was a relaxing drive to<br />

Regina to see Mum and Dad in <strong>the</strong>ir new home…an<br />

apartment.<br />

Sometime after that, since my Dad’s surveying business<br />

was not ‘making it’, he took a job with a large surveying<br />

firm in Edmonton, so off <strong>the</strong>y went, and lived in a rented<br />

apartment close to downtown. Mum got herself a job with<br />

<strong>the</strong> Provincial Government, as a secretary. She’d had a<br />

similar job while in Regina. Both jobs to ‘make ends meet’.<br />
