Comments:

I'm back on the Maryville Communitee Library District board. If you have five acres of property in Maryville you'd like to give us, you can get a library named for you. Keeping the flower garden growing (see facebook site), and enjoying life.

Off the board after finding and remodeling a building for the library.
School Story:

Their we were, the entire track team on the west balcony of the field house, being reamed by Coach Bess, when sister Judy walked by, said "Hi, Coach Bess!" as only Judy could. Bess looked at her, looked at us, and said "Get out of here." We were in the locker room in less than 2 seconds!!!

Still counting on my twin sister to keep me going...

Bruce, hope your birthday is a good one. I didn't know that Dick King had died. He was an old friend. Any more info on him. I last saw him in Portland in about 1973!
