I always knew him as junior when we grew up in Creswell, MD. I have a lot of fond memories of the "good old days""
He was 14 years older than me. I remember him building a fiberglass body car. It didn't have a top on it. I asked him what do you do when it rains. He said you drive so fast the rain doesn't hit you. It took my young mind a while to figure that one out. Sorry I haven't stayed in touch over the years.
