My name is THOMAS BECK and I'm 75, and was born, and raised in Denver, Colorado. When I was 8, my mother committed suicide. Before her death, my mom had placed me, and my younger brother in the care of a family, so that she could work, and not have to worry about a babysitter. Our father was overseas serving in the Korean War. I wasn't aware of it at the time, but my folks were going through a divorce.
