Biography

This is ongoing. Someday I might get it finished...

Well, here I am again... gonna find out who belongs to whom, and where... and why?

Early History

Luther was born in McAlester, Pittsburg, Oklahoma, United States on 15 Dec 1956 to Earl Remus Brown and Lois Fern Smith. He was the fifth of six children. According to his mother, he was spoiled by his 3 older sisters from the day he came home from the hospital. Fortunately, he overcame that... maybe.
His family moved quite often. Dad would find what appeared to be a better job and they would move to a new place. From Dec 1956 to July 1970 the family lived in 11 different cities. They lived in McAlester, Pittsburg, Oklahoma; Plainview, Hale, Texas; Amarillo, Potter, Texas; Clovis, Curry, New Mexico; Breckenridge, Stephens, Texas; Abilene, Taylor, Texas; Stillwater, Payne, Oklahoma; Levelland, Hockley, Texas; Denison, Grayson, Texas; Ponca City, Osage, Oklahoma; Denton, Denton, Texas; and finally back to Stillwater in July 1970.

Notes

I recently let it be known that I would be posting my mother's cake recipe here. I have decided, since is a memory of her and her wonderful cooking, I am posting it to the biography / notes section on her page. Link: Lois Fern (Smith) Brown. It's still my favorite cake.
First, before you go there, cake made from scratch contains egg and oil. Mayonnaise is made from egg and oil. That being said, I didn't want anyone to go "Yuck!!" when they read the name of the cake.
