John Wittenborn funeral

John Wittenborn died and I went up to his funeral in Steeleville Illinois yesterday!  Hired a driver because I wanted to say goodbye to this great player who played with Bill Stacy and the Imans and Gary Nichols!  It was a long trip, we witnessed a bad wreck in front of us and I called 911 while my driver ran for the truck, lines were long but I saw his first wife, Janet, and their kids and they knew someone from their Semi past was there!

And he went on to play pro ball with the Eagles and was on their championship team in 1960!
