My brother, George, in Plant city, Fl reads the Porstmouth Daily Times
and he told me about Jim
Fout's death. The triumvirate of Jim, Doc, and Jack has been a bit
reduced. I am indeed sorry.
A few of our other friends have also passed and I am now an
octogenarian. The old Torjan days
seem gone. I can still remember the thrill of slipping over that
northeast brick wall to see those
uniformed Trojans start a season. The opening kick was glory to us
eight to thirteen year old
A, B, and C league urchins from throughout the depression-surviving
city of mainly blue collar families.
Heaven will afford camaraderie for all accepting the Christ. We must
look forward to that good friend.
I pray that Gib, Gus, Doc, Jim, John Rapp, Clark Rapalee and all good
Portsmouth people may
reminisce the good lives we have had.
