David Franklin's Story
Life
Hello to anyone who knows me.
I am a licensed pharmacist by profession.
I have lots of interests, for example, flying, skiing, golf, reading, and I swim around 5 miles a week. I still read a great deal, mainly Louis L'amour westerns, various science magazines, the Bible, and books by: Michael Connelly, Patricia Cornwell, Tony Hillerman, Robert Ludlum, and others.
The Melvin's hamburger just isn't what is used to be! We used to call it pool-room hamburger. I still ask for it all the way, but recently learned to specify well-done to get something close to what we used to get. They just don't do it like the Melvin's did for so many years.
I get to Etown infrequently, but more often lately. I like talking to people I run into and knew before leaving what seems so long ago! A few notables I spoke to at Christmas, Jack Cross at Bladen Tire, and Mr. Leinwand at Leinwand's both of whom were doing well. I haven't seen any classmates of '73 in ages or any of our faculty from East Bladen.
To any one from ...Expand for more
the band and Mr. Haney's era, a BIG HELLO, how about them St. Louis Blues and was it Second or Third Suite we used to play with the alternating beats per measure. I think he had a big impact on all of us, and was sorry to hear of his passing.
Good luck to all of you and God Bless!
December 3, 2020 - Hello and God Bless to all my classmates and from other years as well in E-town. This year has seen remarkable changes to our way of life. Despite all the bad things that have happened, mankind has made a great deal of technological progress. I have high hopes for the future though it seems uncertain now. As strange as life now seems, we got this far and we'll get beyond Covid-19. It's destined to go the way of the influenza virus at this point once the vaccine has been delivered to the general population. I want to wish anyone at all reading this Happy Holidays. Congrats on making it to Medicare and Social Security for most of you, LOL..!! dfy PS dear friends I am on facebook as david yandle, see ya later!
