Of the folks mentioned I was only able to ever speak to one of them . Back in the mid to late 80's I spoke with George Bird Evans and his wife occasionally on the phone for about 5 years . Wish I could have met them in person as they certainly were graciouse on the phone !

Wait thats no totally correct , I chatted Charlie Dell a few times before he died or should I say he talked I listened and I tried to talk loud enough for him to understand me . Charlie had shot so much in his life along with being in loud places that his hearing was not good by any stretch of the imagination !
