My Uncle Frank lived such an interesting life that there is no way I can do him justice in this short little piece. Maybe I can get one of his 6 living children to do a better job. His dad Benjamin F Greenough was from NY and he came to MT to be a trapper. They called him "packsaddle Ben". He had a brother that was a famous rodeo cowboy and 2 sisters also. Alice and Marge and Turk Greenough. Uncle Frank was a self made man. I was present in his life from 1947 until his death. I witnessed his funeral in Sherdian,Wyo. He was a wonderful man. He had slow speech and was so devoted to his family. He was an extremely hard worker and the quintestial "Cowboy". He wore ironed shirts and Levis every day of his life--I know, because I ironed plenty of them for him and my boy cousins'. ~~~Jane Councilman Weaver
