"In The Mail" Thursday 11/6/03
I hope you all are having a great day. This has been a pretty good day and
this evening my son is hoisting me off to a WFA wrestling event in town. But the mail person showed up, albeit, a bit late and the responses were typical. But then a knock on the door and when the dog calmed down and I answered it there stood a Fed Ex person with large envelope in hand. Not normally a recipient of Fed Ex items I was extremely curious and yes the result was autograph related. But surely not what one would think. I had mailed a letter to retired basketball player Richie Regan who lived in New York and not gotten a response. At least until today. Apparently Mr. Regan had sold his home and moved. This Fed Ex package was from the new resident who opened my envelope and tried to help. He did not know where mr. Regan was so he followed up with his own research. Low and behold Mr. Regan passed on December 24 of last year and in the FedEx package were stories of his demise and a note from the current resident. A new first for me in this truly remarkable hobby. A Fed-Ex failure. But then a couple of return to senders in the regular mail and if anyone has any ideas I would be more than appreciative: Russell lee - retired Basketball 9300 W. Manor Court Milwaukee, Wi 53224-1726 ????? stamped: person unknown Bill Lecaine - retired hockey 3127 Stoneybrook Lane Port Huron, Mi 48060-1609 stamped: forwarding order expired and then one dissappointment from: Retired baseball player Gregg Garret passed away in June and I received notification from his wife. And then the successes for which we are looking; RETIRED BASKETBALL Tom Kozelko 6200 Peninsula Drive Traverse City, Mi 49686 sent 10/25/03 received 11/6/03 rec'd 2 index card signed RETIRED FOOTBALL Pete Lazetich 185 Martin Street Reno, Nv 89509-2827 sent 10/28/03 received 11/6/03 rec'd 2 index card signed RETIRED HOCKEY Jim Lorentz 2555 Staley Rd Grand Island, Ny 14072 sent 10/31/03 received 11/6/03 rec'd a nice handwritten signed note and 2 signed index cards Les Kozak 1072 Kimbro Drive Baton Rouge, La 70808 sent 10/25/03 received 11/6/03 rec'd 2 index cards signed Gary Edwards 6818 Pecan Avenue Moorpark, Ca 93021-1661 sent 10/14/03 received 11/6/03 rec'd a small bw signed photo, a handwritten signed note and 2 sic and that was this strange mail day. How was yours? til next time.... hope all your mailboxes are full see ya ken |
