Oh, those days back at Grant Park high school where sports, and quite a few parties pulled us together. Football was our favourite sport, where I recall him saying ,"We ran the football over each others bodies to get that next touchdown, and it still hurts". Bill, I will miss those occasional phone calls, updates on our lives to each other and that infrequent JET game we got to go to. Those beers and hotdogs were always so good. Thinking of you, cheers as I raise a beer to our friendship. - Posted by: Brian Reid (High School friend, teamate, social buddies into our 20's, then calls and encounters over the years.) on: Jun 02, 2019
