I sat next to him at the Spring Luncheon for a couple years. He missed one year because of his stroke, then came the next year and he looked surprisingly good physically and mentally. After the luncheon we were chatting and I told him how good he looked. He said son, don’t bullshite me. I’ve got mirrors in my house, I know how I look. Funny sob.

My first hero. I was 7 in 1959. My dad knew him. Said he was one tough SOB, which from my dad was one helluva compliment.
RIP
