      cabin at Bass Lake, Calif. During the Depression, he served in
      the Civil Conservation Corps. Later, at Pacific Tent and
      Awning, he went from sweeping floors to sales manager and
      community liaison within a year. He married Marjorie Grace
      Griset on March 17, 1940. They lived in Fresno and in Santa
      Ana, Calif., where he operated a canvas manufacturing firm. He
      eventually became sole owner of Maybee Tent and Awning Co. in

      that was docked in San Diego, Calif. He served as commander of
      the U.S. Power Squadron and taught a course in celestial
