I remember a childhood of fun due to Gordon Holmquist. He fondly called me "Chicken" as I invited myself to a chicken dinner at his house on many nights. I remember going on vacation with Gordon, Gloria and Judy. Many a baseball game was played in the field behind our house with Mr. Holmquist coaching the neighborhood boys.
