Mom (Denece Ann Argyle) and Dad (Edwin Perkins) met in July or August in Pocatello.  Mom was staying with the Van Orden’s (2nd Cousins) Veah and Jolene.  Dad drove a green 1949 Ford convertible.  He would meet up with his friends at the Alameda City Hall every evening.  Veah bet Mom $5.00 that Mom could not get a ride in that car.  It took her a week, but Mom won the bet. One Sunday morning, the girls were getting ready for church.  Veah had loaned a blouse to her friend JoAnn Bybee and Mom went to get it.  Dad went to pick up Dale Bybee and give him a ride to Priesthood.  They met there at the Bybee house.  Mom said she needed a ride home and Dad volunteered to take her home.  She told Veah that she was going to marry Edwin.
