Jean Brown was one of Maxine's best friends. They moved to Tigard in the very early 1960s, and Mom served with Jean in numerous Relief Society callings in the Church. They also went camping with the Hansens a few times. Furthermore, their kids were in school about the same time as Maxine's kids.
Nolan worked as a special agent for the US Postal Service, and was transferred to the Seattle area in the early 1970s.
