Today I read the obituary of my boyhood friend, Jack "Cat" Emerson. The last time I saw Jack was at my 80th birthday party. Jack was a year ahead of me at NBHS and wore the FFA jacket. Jack tended some livestock for Abe Aframe. Jack allowed me to drive his '49 Chevrolet! I got to reconnect with Jack at his home on Hadley Path W B. What impressed me most was his "youthful" appearance as he enjoyed gardening. I also recall pumping gas at the Sunoco Station which was owned by brother Russ Emerson. Jack Emerson, too, was a very special boyhood friend!
