Life Living and Working in Mexico....enjoying Senoritas and Margaritas !!....Holla at cha Boy!! I see a lot of my old friends, and i know we have all had very intersting a busy lifes. We need a form to communicate a little more, and i know we are all busy, but it would be good to hear from some of the old true friends from time to time. I ran across two of my best "potnas" a few years ago ( Randy and Ronald Predium ). Nothing has changed as far as us being true friends, although we did have to go back our own corners of the world. We lost touch aagain. You only get a few true homies like that, and i know when ever we hook up again, it's on and cracking ( true homies to the end ).The there is Fred Smith, the one i refer to as " the minister of information", this man has more history about Lynwood folk then another other person that you or I know. Had it not been for Fred, a great deal of information that we get, would not be known about our fellow Knights. My time at " The Wood" was spent being a football player. That's all i ever wanted to do. I slept it, ate it, and dranked it. I rememeber great times and great games to this day. I grow through highlights in my mind all the time.

Varsity snawled at us from time to time. We were a cocky bunch. I still rememeber we ended our season at 5-2-1. S.G.V.L. champs our 1st time out the gate. I rememeber Doug France of the Los Angeles rams came to our banquet and presented us with our Championship trophies.When we became sophmores, all hell broke loose. You think we were cocky as freshmen, we were 10 times worse as sophmores. We lost some big guns ( Howard Hawkins went to warren Hi ) Norris Anderson, Sam Cardiel, Kelly Irby , and i believe Troy Horton went to varsity ). But we gained some big guns to. Jay Reid was able to convince his pops to let him play football that year, so we had a big strong back in the back field. I remember James Gustavis ran tight end for us. My father was murdered during our summer session before that season, and i dedicated ...Expand for more
