Personal style can be quite an abstract concept. It can take many forms, and evolve over the course of one’s lifetime.

My world was rocked over the past six months by having to say goodbye to two good “basketball friends” whose friendship was forged in and through the love of “the game.” I speak, very fondly, of Ron ‘Lefty’ Travis who passed in December of 2017 and more recently Ed ‘Eddie’ Lewellyn who passed in July.

The year was 1943. The United States and most of the rest of the world were in the throes of fighting World War II. Gas was 15 cents a gallon if you could get this rationed commodity at all. The Jefferson Memorial was dedicated, a Coke was a nickel, the All American Girls Professional Baseball

For many years a tabernacle building stood at Montoursville’s Indian Park, going back to the days when it was the Starr Island Amusement Park.
