Dudley,
I just came here after the WWHS 1976 Re-union meeting on Tuesday, 4/12/2016 and saw your picture - that you had passed away. I, (and many others), have been wondering where you are for a number of the past few years - including my older brother Dave. I drove by your old house on Sheridan where we lived 1 block from each other from 5th grade on. I am so honored that you wanted to learn how to play the guitar from me and learn to sing - you wanted to play because you wanted the girls to like you! Dudley, you became an excellent guitar player, keyboard and piano player, and terrific singer - as well as an amazing athlete and friend! I never got to tell you how proud and amazed I was of you - I think I was secretly jealous and insecure. You reminded me of myself musically. God Bless you, my friend! I just trust that you knew Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, and that we will meet again forever! Also, I always loved and appreciate your wonderful mother, as well. She was a wonderful woman! Love ya bro! *Tears* Johnny
