Adoplh Menghini was the 4th of 5 children born to Angelo and Frances (Francesca Floretta) Menghini, who came to the United from Austria in the early 1900's. He was born in Superior, Wyoming but spent a large part of his life in Rock Springs, Wyoming. Health problems as a young man prevented him from serving in World War Two. In Rock Springs, he started his own successful floor company and retired from there after many years. Adolph served as a guide for out of state hunters for awhile and always loved being in the outdoors. One of his passions was walking through the foothills of southern Wyoming looking for Indian artifacts. He owned an amazing collection of arrowheads. He enjoyed bowling and loved his Sunday morning breakfasts with the men at the Rock Springs Fire Department. He never had children and, after being diagnosed with a tumor, his nieces and sister took care of him in Salt Lake City until his death. The Rock Springs Fire Department saluted him at his memorial service, a gesture he would have loved. His ashes are buried next to his parents in Rock Springs.
