HEY PA....

[Sir reel]

Mr. Earl... I just returned this afternoon from a week in Frostproof working on Mom's place. While I was down there I picked up a copy of the Central Florida AG News. There was an article in it on a Rancher and his cattle operation in the Plant City area. The name is Alvin C. Futch. His father was Ralph Futch. If these folks are part of your family, let me know what your mail address is and I'll send the magazine to you.

PA, Sheriff Jewel was a long time friend of the families. Heck of a nice guy. As far as I know, Jewel only had one son, Ben. Ben has never been in law enforcement, in fact, his mischief usually had him on the other side of the badge.

While I know Ben, I don't know Ben's children, so I can't say if one is a State Patrolman or not. You need to read up on the stir Ben just caused in Lake Park, GA. in the last 12 months. He ran for mayor, won, first meeting fired the popo chief and the city clerk. 2 councilmen resigned, special election, 2 new elected. Ben and one of them get in a tussle, then Ben resigns. Its better than TV.

YEA , I SAW SOMETHING ABOUT THAT ON T/V, THAT SOUNDS LIKE A MEMBER OF THE FUTCH CLAN.

PA,
Ya'll Futchs' are spread out all over I guess. I have a close friend named Donald Futch. We've been friends for over twenty years. He's a mailman over in Nashville, Georgia. Heck of a nice fellow.
