Place: Lake Tawakoni Comments: Jack, those were the days back in the summer of 1960. You, me , Speedy Mike, Scooter Walter, Homerun Steve Cargill. What an infield we had. We were the best in the city and proud to represent Lisbon all the way to the City of Dallas Championship game.
Place: Richardson Comments: TNX Sammy, you know everyone will want to know how you're doing so having Sarah contact me or vice versa would be great so I can give updates. Praying for a very successful surgery and a good recovery!! I'm bummed about Bobby Egan's passing. It was a great photo of him on the obit. Only thing missing from HS was the black hair and those black horn-rimmed glasses. Other than that he looked just as I remembered. Sad we never got to visit with him as he didn't come to any of our last 3-4 reunions. I think the last I remember seeing him was our 25th.
Place: 66erville Comments: Sam, you think this is the price for being a great 3rd baseman and firing that ball to 1st base, waist high, for the out? Praying for a successful out-come and a speedy recovery.
Place: Lake Tawakoni Comments: My surgery will be this Friday morning, June 26th at Presbyterian Dallas. Sarah and I have to be there at 6:00 a.m. We will be leaving from our Daughter's house in Highland Park. I want to be on that side of the world. Presby Dallas is only about 15 minutes away from her house. Sandy, I will email you with Sarah's cell phone number and other info. So sorry to hear about Bobby. We were in concert choir together and he had an incredible baritone voice.
Place: Richardson Comments: To all who would like to read Bobby Egan's obit, John Southworth was kind enough to provide it for us. Click below: http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/statesman/obituary.aspx?pid=175005959
Place: The Woodlands Comments: That is sad news about Bobby Egan's passing. He was a very brilliant and talented person as well as a terrific singer. Prayers for family and loved ones.
Place: Richardson Comments: Sammy - I had an issue with both feet (wearing high heels all the time since I was 18) and decided to have it corrected. Still being relatively young & stupid (39) I had both feet done at same time. Bad decision. But seriously, ck out the medical rental places and you may find exactly what you need for short term without buying expensive stuff you won't need after a few wks. Is your shoulder surgery 6-27? That's Sat, so may it's the 26th?
Place: Richasrdson Comments: JS - I had received a note from David Mitchell just this morning advising he had heard of Bobby's death. Then your post. Thank you both for giving us this info and access to the obit. How very sad, another wonderful SOC '66er passes away. With Bobby's death . . . we now have 78 classmates that have left us.
Place: The Woodlands, TX Comments: Perhaps this is old news, but for those who weren't aware I'll post the link about Bobby Egan. I was good friends with his brother Mike in the Class of '63. http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/statesman/obituary.aspx?pid=175005959
Place: Rain soaked Tawakoni Comments: Good grief Sandy, how did you manage having both feet operated on at the same time? You are one tough gal. There are several rent places in the area. I'm going to check out the Quinlan physical rehab center tomorrow to set up my post surgery appointments. They might know of some places as well.
Place: Richardson Comments: Sorry Sam... don't know of any. But, maybe you can ck with places like Rent-A-Center or a medical rental place. When I had surgery on both feet at one time (not the best idea) Don rented a neat wheel chair for 30 days and it was a life saver. That's all I got.
Place: Lake Tawakoni Comments: I am looking for a used power lift recliner I can use during my rehab after my shoulder replacement surgery. Any of you know someone please let me know. Sam
Place: Richardson Comments: Shortcake, I hate to hear about the loss of your longtime friend. Good friends are hard to come by, but even harder to loss. Hope you will keep the good memories and your heart will feel better soon.
Place: Cypress springs Comments: Just getting caught up on GB. So sorry about your sister Roe. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Just got Mom out of the hospital again this week. She was having pain in her chest and arm so they kept her a couple of nights and she has to go to her heart Dr this week. My adopted big brother, Binks, passed away May 23rd. He and his parents lived behind us since I was at Zumwalt -he was at SMU. We just adopted each other and have always kept the relationship. He had cancer and I talked to him on the 21st. He did not tell me. His wife called on Sunday and told me he was gone that he wanted me to remember him from when we saw him in Jan. I will miss him forever! We are supposed to get more rain today! Just got to where we can see the bottom of the dock! I am sure everyone around has the same problem. Have a couple of friends in garland still living in hotels. Cars and motorcycles are totaled because of water damage so I cannot complain.
Place: Allen, Texas Comments: My sincere condolences to my fellow SOCITE and ETSU Lion, Roe Burrow. So sorry to hear your sister passed on. Having lost my only sibling 10 years ago, I know the pain. Work through your grief and know that you can call on any of us if you need to talk, cry on a shoulder, or just chill. You are in my prayers. |
