He enjoyed bring ice cream to the Tregemba reunions held each June to share with everyone. Harvey had a violin decorated with abalone. When his teenaged niece, Ruth Ann Moody, wanted to take violin lessons, Harvey gave his violin to Ruth Ann. She learned to play on this violin that now belongs to Jerra Lynn Stude, her granddaughter. ---------------------- Lloyd Laverle Moody: The oil field (Ransom, KS) wasn't a very good place to raise a boy, so that first summer when I became 8 and Harry 10 yrs. old, Harry was sent to live with Grandpa Tregemba and I went to live with Uncle Harvey and Aunt Myrtle Talley. They were just newly married and lived in a large house in Windom, KS, which was west of McPherson. Uncle Harvey worked with his brother and operated the Santa Fe Garage in Windom. I had no clothes to speak of so Uncle Harvey bought me a new pair of coveralls. I wore those coveralls all that summer. When wash day came, I had to go to bed while Aunt Myrtle washed and dried my coveralls. That summer, he would have me sweep out that big garage, "Globe Garage", that they were repairing cars in. Then he would give me 5 cents to by a double dip ice cream cone. Through the years, he taught me how to work on all kinds of engines and many shop skills that I have used through a lifetime. ------------------------- Claire Talley Davis: I was very fortunate that my father not only liked my mother's family, but they were his best friends, too. ------------------------- Ottawa Times, Oct. 23, 1980 HARVEY TALLEY
