Lonnie Boy! Star of the Show! The Prancing Man! But, not always so…. A bit of a drag when growing up – “It’s hard to pay attention to work when you are such a clown. But that was in my teen years. Once i got beyond that – I was King!” Wherever Polly wanted to go was where I went. There was nothing I liked better than to lead. My prancing gait was my hallmark. It showed the way I felt about my life. I loved it! What a gift it was for me to have Polly teach me how to lead. I returned the gift with my devotion and fun-loving spirit. We were a team!!! We will always be close in spirit.
