John Hickerson......
It had been a long time since we'd had a "report" from Hick and my emails to him had gone unanswered for a long time so I was worried needless to say. I ran across his number this evening so made bold to give him a call. I was relieved when he picked up the phone to say the least. He'll be 86 his next birthday and his health has taken a turn unfortunately. But he's in full possession of his faculties and still sounds like the same old Hick. He's able to chat a bit and still takes a glass of bourbon in the evening but has had to give up gunning and his weekly tennis game. He asked that I do a quick post and let all his friends on forum know he was still in the world and thought of us often though he doesn't get on the computer very often anymore.
