That was the most eloquent, the most poetic, and the wisest post I have ever read on FR in over 20 years. It is also the most inspiring life story.

God bless you brother.

Just making public a point or two in which my Post #52 may need correctio, to wit:

(1) Perhaps my "Amie" should have bben "Ami"; and

(2) the term "Warrioress" should then have been "Warrior" instead.

Together with Ted Koppel and many other kids of the '50s, we remember the old Archbold Stadium football game chant (according to my best recall):

The Saltine Warrior is a bold, bad man
And his weapon is the pigskin ball.
When on the field he takes a good firm stand
He's the hero of large and small.
He will fight, he will fight
With both might and main;
His opponents will fight,
But they fight in vain,
Because the Saltine Warrior is a bold, bad man
And victo-ri-uh-ous over a-a-all!
