About: Happy 80th Birthday, George Kolbenschlag! 08 Jun 2016

Charles Marshburn comments:
George doesn't look much different from the picture. He's merely exchanged his white hat for white hair! Charles Marshburn
Thanks, Mr. Marshburn: You're right on that score. However, a word of caution on your Teutonic tendencies. German should only be spoken in Coburg - to my knowledge the only German community in Adair County. - EW
