C.a. Bowldingd Obituary

Graduation Year Class of 1957
Date of Passing (unknown)
About C.A. and I met outside in the parking lot
and talked for a while after the '57 (45th)
reunion. He wanted me to know how proud he was and thanked me for my military
service. The featured guest during the
dinner was Mr O'Dell, our Coach, who
had presented me with nine military
awards that had been sent to me over 30
years after my discharge. These medals
could not have been presented while I was
in treatment at a Navy Hospital and three
of the foreign awards were not even made
available until many years after we left the
Republic of VietNam.

There were tow others who thanked me for my service but C.A, seemed practically
out of breath trying to catch me before I left
the area. I remember him as a very friendly
person and as a sincere man who was not
a big man on campus probabably excelling
in just being everyone's friend. May God
rest his soul.
