Growing up in Cloverdale in the '50s was about as good as it gets. Such as life is there is always a downside. Polio ran rampant in this country, striking two of our classmates Talbert Petersen and Ken Little. Roland Osman, Jan Youngren, Terry Haehl, and Cindy Struder were victims. One of the greatest discoveries in the history of medicine occurred at this time and by our fifth grade year, Polio was well on its way to being wiped out.
