Leonard Mann Hull

This is my grandfather. He was born during the roaring twenties, grew up in the great depression, became a man during the second world war, and raised a family during the forties, fifties, sixties, and seventies.

After being a soldier, he earned his bachelor degree from Utah Agricultural College, now Utah State University in Education. He later earned a graduate degree in Higher Education Administration from Idaho State University. He spent his career as a teacher and later a principal, teaching in the communities in Southwestern Idaho, primarily in Ashton where he finished his career.

After retiring, he and his wife lived in Arizona for a few years, and they spent their summers driving between their children's homes, scattered as far south as Southern California and as far north as Bozeman, Montana.

After his beloved wife died in 2000, he continued his travels but sometimes stayed longer at some of his children's houses. He stayed long stretches in California, Idaho, and Utah. He passed away in 2012.
