About my family:

Calvin Larry Summers (1944-2005)
(parents: Bennie Earl Summers (1918-1986) and Opal Helen Lucas (1922-1994)
Sheila Lynn Janssen (1945-2019)
(parents: Jack (John Jerry) Janssen (1920-2001) and Mary Alma Fee (1924-1989)
Children of Calvin and Sheila- My mother, Sheri b. 7/4/1963 and Calvin (John Louis)(1965-1984)
My mother, Sheri, and Calvin, who was known as John, also have 1 half-brother from Sheila and her third husband, Roger D. Schlesselman (b.4/1/1946) m. 12/31/1972, Randall Dean (1972-1989), and 2 half-brothers from Calvin and his second wife, Lynnda F.

Sheila had no children with her second husband, Larry Wade Drennan m. 2/10/1970-div. 12/22/1972. Sheila's firstborn son, John died in 1984 due to accidental suicide while intoxicated (Russian Roulette) and Randy died in 1989 of Brain Cancer, only a few short months after my Great Grandma Mary died. Grandma Mary, Grandpa Jack, and their son, John (9/29/?-2015), were all cremated and then dispersed in the Truckee River together by Sheila and Sheri in 2015-16. The property purchased in Lemmon Valley, Nevada by Jack and Mary has been kept in the family. First, by their son, John until his passing in 2015 and then, by my brother, Damien, who moved from Colorado to the "Nevada Homestead" as we call it in 2017, where he meets Victoria. Sheila moved back to Nevada in 2015, where she purchased land in Silver Springs with my Papa, Roger. Sheri moved out to the Silver Springs property in Nevada the following year. My Godmother and Sheila's Aunt Evelyn Jean Kirkham (nee. Fee b.1936), sister to Grandma Mary, moved from Monterey, CA to Nevada with her family, Uncle Phil Kirkham (1930-2020), and sons, Mitch and Scott in 2016 as well.
Roger was the last child adopted by Orvis Kelly Schlesselman (1908-2004), and Florence Melvina Phipps (1910-2012). They had previously adopted Melvin David (m. Sana) and Louann Renee (m. Barb Farber). No genetic lineage has been obtained regarding his birth parents. Roger had one previous marriage to Harrietta A. (nee unknown) div. 2/23/1971.
They had one daughter, Heide Dee Martinez (bn. Schlesselman). She and E.J. Silva had one son, Roger Dean Martinez b. 1/13/1992. His grandparents are listed as Roxanne Millot of Ukiah, Harriet and Rudy Martinez of San Jose, and Roger and Sheila Schlesselman of Lakewood, CO on his newspaper birth announcement.
My Paternal Grandparents- m. 5/22/1954 in Cook, Illinois

My Grandpa Ziggy (Thomas Nicholas) married again, to Sandra Turner, and died in Surprise, AZ.
I have yet to be able to obtain any genetic lineage on my Grandma Marlene June. Grandma June and her siblings were all adopted out from my understanding, reasons unbeknownst to me. Later in life, she reconnected with her sister, Dorothy Miller (b.3/24/?) of San Lorenzo, CA, and their brother, John McCallum (b.3/31/1944). She never remarried after divorcing Thomas N., as she was too busy raising and supporting 6 kids. She relocated to Fontana, WI, living with her son, Robert "Bobby" and family, wife Susan, who shares a birthday with Grandma June, their daughter Amber and son, William.
