Re: A Tribute To Earl Hangen
Jay, what a great tribute to Mr. Earl Hangen! This shows how one individual can make a difference! Mr. Earl Hangen kept the Grand Old Game alive around the world with his incredible dedication and hard work as mail play director. This is history as biography! Thank you for this tribute, Jay!
