Arthur Price Rasmussen (1912-2001)
My grandfather
me --> Ruth Rasmussen Buchanan --> Arthur Price Rasmussen
My grandmother, Alice, was a wonderful writer and poet. My cousin, Erik Rasmussen (son of Lawrence Arthur, my mother's brother) found this poem in a box of clippings and photos.
Who from the trapshoot
Brings home turkey and ham?
Why, Art, My Man, My Man
Who sells the most tractors?
Not John Deere,
But Art - My Man, My Man.
Who sells Purina
By the carload and can?
Why Art, My Man, My Man!
Who meekly says,
Was it your birthday yesterday dear?
Why, Art, My Man, My Man.
