Guys and their cars

It has been so long since I've added to this blog I'm not sure I remember how.  Chuck A. sent me a photo titled Bill Boutelle and asked me to send it to Jim F.  So I did.  There was a back and forth between these guys and memories of the cars, but unfortunately I have a quick finger for the delete button.  I do have the picture of the car and a later note from Jim.  That's all I know.

And here's Jim's update, the part that's missing is the discussion of the car and one or the other of these guys had one similar.
Myrt:








All's well with me here in southern Michigan. I'll be turning 70 on 12/28, I think only Skip Devoy and Larry DuBois were younger than me but not sure about that.







I get to Delavan 3 - 4 times a year, it is nothing like what we had there in the 50's - 60's. When the town council approved the Walmart (I wonder who got rich over that) that pretty much drove a stake into the heart of the downtown. There still seems to be quite a bit of industry in the area, I hear that the employment picture while not rosy isn't as bad as most small towns, particularly those in Michigan.



I don't know too many folks there anymore, either. I touch base with Ron and Sig Surmac, Jimmy and Donna Merrill, Ron and Sandy Henriott, the breakfast group at Greenie's (at the golf course) most of which are folks that I used to work with at Sta-Rite and one or two others from "back in the day"...
