that the services that Ann Van Tine performed for VTC were
minimal.
2. Ann Van Tine's Work for VTC
Ann Van Tine worked for VTC without pay from around 1955,
when she graduated from high school, until around 1980, when she
moved to Big Bear. She did some work for VTC in the early
1980's, but less than in earlier years. She helped her father
with all aspects of construction for VTC. She supervised
construction of 17 houses for VTC in 1967, listed and sold houses
that VTC built, and managed VTC's rental properties. She
landscaped the homes and some of the office buildings that VTC
built. She supervised construction of the home that VTC built
for Garrabrant.
Ann Van Tine's hobbies and her work for Ebaugh before 1982
were minimal or generally occurred on weekends, and did not
interfere with her work for VTC. We conclude that Ann Van Tine
provided a substantial service to VTC.
