RADIO STORIES

 
It was taboo to hunt or even carry a gun in company vehicles,
but I do think it happened once or twice!
I remember one day we were cruising along by the Cranberry Junction
and Ron Strumecki was driving.
Ron mentioned that there was an old cabin,
he wanted to check out nearby, so we stopped and snooped around.
Laying in the bush was a set of old beaten up moose antlers.
So Ron took the antlers and tied them to the winch,
in the front of the truck.   Ok, I might have helped him!!
Hey, we looked like a couple Yankee hunters heading home!
Anyway we carried on, and headed back to the Barn on Keith.
There to “greet” us was Don Parr,
well was he surprised to see the horns out front.
When Don got mad, he turned this nice shade of RED,
and he was very near that deep RED,
by this point, when we were told to get the horns off,
and never to do that again!   We didn’t!

I tell stories about Don Parr, but without a doubt
he was the Best Boss I ever had!  Very fair!
Never had a grievance against him in his whole career.
Don and Shirley celebrated their 50th Wedding Anniversary
Aug 2, 2003, A Great Couple!
Sadly Shirley passed away in 2005.
