Arnold Palmer is alive, well and living in a neighboring town. He is still active in conservative politics and a fine asset to our community. His generosity also added a wing to our neighborhood clinic, among other things.

This is especially quite remarkable when you consider that he retired from golfing when the top purses were in the low six figures. Yes, he invested well, bought an auto dealership and launched other business ventures when he quit golfing, but he's been very generous with our community.

For many years he was the top earning athlete when counting endorsements. Glad to hear he’s a conservative. Almost all pro golfers are.

I have always admired Arnie, for his golf but also because he is a class act. As far as I know there has never been a hint of scandal tied to his name unlike most athletes of today. He has always been a gentleman in the best sense of the word. Golf, unlike other sports, is much more likely to make the news when a golfer does something wrong because it is a man bites dog story. If you follow the game Palmer represents many in the sport, golf just seems to create them.

You are lucky to have him for a neighbor.
