GB - You owe him at least a cold one someday.....he is still doing shows- playing golf and started playing tennis once again....He and I played for the TARS tennis team......and were totally inspired by the great tennis coach Jack Rice.....COUGH!•••• I don;t think he ever left the Athletic Department window from the second floor while coaching.....even when we practiced at Farwell...... |

ES: I had forgotten that T2 was on the tennis team...at some point I knew that. You're right...he earned a cold one by saying nothing. |

In the Late 90's until he and Judy T moved to Florida I would stay with them on my way to TC to visit family.....They had moved back into Detroit on Bishop and CPD from St Clair Shores. He always hosted the the "Gun Fire Classic" Golf tournament at Chandler Park......where one could be playing and actually hear gun fire......It was always fun and good times by all..... |

ES: Yeah, I guess I knew that they had moved to near T2's old homestead...I assumed to be nearer his mother. Gun Fire Classic...never heard of that one before. |

GB- You had already turned in your guns for cash deals offered by the DPD.....but the name GFC for the golf matches amongst friends seemed to fit.....The course was well maintained and in great shape and the neighborhood was in shambles and ruin.....weird!•••• and $18 bucks a round and a CART.....go figure!•••••••
TT mother was staying with him during those visits.....the Farmbrook home had been sold......Trudy not doing very well these days and is in Florida with them... |

CSI LA in June will be enough....Sj's info on my desk......and it is known that MUMFORD foxes NEVER traveled past ELansing......Not sure of ST's mental state as she visits with her bro. in FLA....but I think I should have him mention your name and the Blue Spruce once again....with the phone ready to dial 911... |

ES: The only thing on your desk re: SJ is the pic that I posted! Keep dreamin'! Whatever you need to tell yourself about SF...I wouldn't want to destroy your fantasies. One thing we do agree about...she was an incredible fox...who loved the '56 Sunliner.

Well...given that the Lutheran church was founded by Martin Luther who was a member of the Catholic church which was founded by St. Peter who was a Jew.....so, yeah I guess that might make Jjaba a Lutheran...a couple of associations removed...if you follow that logic please let me know what it is...sort of like SE59's late second husband and I are related. |

ES: Given that the poor guy died a couple of years ago it would be a tad complicated. It seemed like somewhat of an extreme way to get away from her...but...to each his own. |

GB - Another chapter for the book....."Wrong Turns...on the Eastside"... I spent 23 minutes just gazing at your CSI Gift that will have to be awarded via USPS on July 31.... Since the TC CSI tour has been put on hold.....the gift will look very good in the living room. |

ES: You're right...single parenting was somewhat rare in the Ozzie & Harriet times (if there ever was such a time)...interestingly enough I think SR's mom was also a single parent.
Many good times at Ballduck Park...from sliding down the toboggan runs as a ten year old...to back seat nose nuzzling in the teen years...I remember going for walks through the park at night with ST...first apartment after WMU was on Kingsville in Harper Woods...used to run from the apartment around the park for a workout... times have changed. |

GB - Certainly a chapter about BAllduck......family toboggan fun....highschool fun and tennis matches with friends and we would head to the DQ on Warren for a Blizzard.....and then during college in the summer time there was a softball game almost on a nightly basis on the open space area on the Marquette side of the park.....a lot of 60, 61 and 62 grads playing and drinking strohs......and the memories live on.... |
