Two More Inducted into Fred's HOF

Greetings Ya'll
All is well on our street.

Bobby Cutts has slipped off the front page,
replaced by the Obama - Clinton battle for the Dem's nomination.  

I have the mid winter blahs, but I'll get over it.  I always seem to make it through to spring. 
I think we appreciate good weather here, more so than the folks we lived around in southern California.

I have two people to induct into my Hall of Fame.


Barbara Nicholson :
spent her life caring for other people's children, and, of course, her own. 
She was a teacher for more than 30 years, math and science. 
She served on the Alliance School board for twelve years,
and, an all-around supporter of children.  

My wife, Karen, loves this part, as told by Nancy Whitaker at the Alliance Review,
Barbara was a true-believer, her Bible was always with her.

Charles C J  Everett:
another great African-American was Charles C J Everett. 
Years ago he was featured on Candid Camera, directing traffic in Alliance - in a very funny way. 

But he was so much more. He rose to Captain and served as acting Police Chief. 

C J was 71.


The sun's coming through the front window;
I have to run to bask in it, before it's cloudy again.

Fred
