MY Story by Thomas Michael Purcell,

Dad , being ousted by the Harvard Grads, purchased a Dunhill employment agency franchise . I'll never forget.We had 3 choices to set up shop, Denver, Orlando, or Asheville, N.C., I voted for Denver because I liked to snow ski. Unfortunately at the age of 15, your vote doesn't count too much. So here we are in the Mtns. of WNC. There goes the neighborhood. lol.

e weren't the first Yankees to set foot in these MTNS. Wow What a culture shock!!! You see, there was some kinda war and alot of these folks were still pissed off at me.I kept saying, I was born in Birmingham Ala. in 1959 and thats my story and I'm sticking to it.[ with a Long Island accent].

Oh yea, started a new Religion, It's called Catholic Baptist...Love you guys...Tom P.S. sorry about that incident.
