Warren Hood was a friiend of my grandfathers and well respected in Jackson...philanthropy.
His home was a movie set in Grisham’s The Chamber I think
I lived a few blocks away in a much more modest ranch style in the 70s.
Not sure if he’s still alive...all my kin are down there in Madisn, Clinton, Brandon...one holdout on Old Canton in Jackson.
but I’m up here now in Music City...12 years....hard to believe..me for 12 years in one place
only other place I spent that much time was in West Jackson in a hood off Clinton Blvd behind Mynelle Gardens which is now series goblin country
not far from much younger Yudan...for the record...his daddy was my Little League coach..and a fine man btw who come to think of it....when he was a detective and I was around 12 and had shot out some street lights with my pellet gun, he came around and put the fear of God in me nicely...they could have arrested me and put me in Oakley or French Camp if I got lucky..so...his dad was an example to me of good treatment from a lawman....i put that Benjamnen pellet rifle in my closet for a year after that
FR ala Mississippi is a small world isn’t it?
If I had to live anywhere else besides my native North Louisiana it would be Mississippi or Alabama. I’ve done business with folks from both states for twenty years.
