He learned to fix refrigeration because we lived far from town, and if we didn't fix it ourselves it wouldn't get fixed. My dad had a buddy named Paul Drudge who ran a refrigeration business out of Gila Bend (55 miles away) who would come out, and he taught my dad a lot, but when Paul retired we were on our own.
