Tuesday, January 18 1966 The Frances Hubbard Diaries

Tuesday, January 18  1966
Cloudy, teens.  Carol did not go to school.   We went to Schoharie and got license and to Cobleskill shopping, home 1230 pm.  I went to Home Bureau at Mrs. Magas.  Ella went with me. We did smoking. Saw Wayne in Schoharie.
Comment:  "Smoking" meant smoking meat to preserve it......my entry about Moses Young yesterday was wrong.

From Patty Young: (Jan 18, 2014)  "This is Patty (Young) Le Viness, daughter of Moses Young, who was taken to Binghamton.  It was my  dad's brother William that died of cancer.  The census was William's family.  Richard and his wife, Betty Ann live in Windham and are doing well.  Next time I see Richard, I'll share your comments about him!  Do enjoy your Mom's diary entries and your comments!  Brings growing up to mind always.

Thanks, Patty"

Also heard from Ron Fancher that Richard Young was "Athlete Of The Year" in 1957 at the Gilboa School.  His comment: "Rich was a very good athlete. Hub named him "Best All Around Athlete” in his junior year. I remember Rich being called up to the stage on graduation night 1957 to pick up his trophy (much to the surprise of some seniors). Back in those days an award meant something - especially from Everett Hubbard".
The 1956 Varsity Basketball Squad, Gilboa Central: Rich is fourth from right....Hub's strategy, full court press man to man defense, pass the ball, don't dribble into the defense..that's me second from right....


No comments:

You're always young in your mind it is said, No matter the face in the mirror, That you see with surprise then say to yourself, "What is that old man doing here?"
