Both Larry and Dianne are native Arizonans. Both were introduced at an early age to the ranching life. His parents were partners with Datre Creek Ranch and Pipeline Ranches off hwy 97 between Wickenburg and Kingman. These ranches were sold in the early 1964. Dianne’s grandfather, William Bourdon owned the largest ranching operation in Navajo County, the Bourdon Ranch, in Navajo County from the 1940’s to the early 1970s. Larry worked as a wildlife biologist/state law enforcement officer with the Arizona Game and Fish Department for 26 years, retiring in the fall of 2000. Dianne continues to work as an office manager in Snowflake. Both enjoy the outdoors, camping, traveling, raising cattle, and spending as much time as they can with their 4 granddaughters and grandson. They have lived on the ranch in Taylor for 35 years.
