Pork Chop: You mentioned Jerry Griffiths being a DO. I can't verify what I said before. He was a great guy, but we had heard, when we were still active that he and Lana divorced and he was disfellowshipped. But, it was probably a rumor. You know how rumors go?
TMS: You talked about several that I know too.
<<Lester M. Dugan: favorite expression during assemblies describing TMS students was "they sweated literally drops of blood." Wife liked checking out business territories during circuit assemblies so she could make many "placements".>> I knew them well too. When I was in High School, I remember going into business territory with Sister Dugan and placing tons of literature. I learned out to do businesses from her. I think they are both long dead. I knew them in the early 60's, and they were pushing 60 then.
<<Roland Collier: stuffed shirt, bragged about a Watchtower article he supposedly wrote.>> I really liked them!! But I know what you mean about 'stuffed shirt'. Kind of stiff man. My brother was very close to him, and he was going to perform his marriage, but had to back out. Can't remember why.
<<Bro. Kovalak: decent platform speaker>> Nick Kovalak? Neat guy. He was close to my family too.
<<Maurice Hagen: left the work years ago to start family. child was down syndrome>> He lived in our area, and my father delivered their babies. The child you mention had cerebral palsy, not Down's. His wife died maybe 10 years ago, of cancer and he is remarried. Still a dub.
