• Notes

  Dean Stafford was an LA Deputy Sheriff in 1945 and a motorcycle policeman in Culver City, CA in the early 1950's. In 1956, at age 49, he had an accident that injured him very seriously and did major brain damage. Though he lived to age 81, he was unable to take care of himself after the accident. His wife, Geneva and son Bob, cared for him part of the time and he was in a care facility when it became too difficult to keep him home. In his youth, Dean was very athletic and physically strong.
