TERRY'S
"EXPLANATION AND APOLOGY" TO HOMETOWN
7 December 2002
TO MY FELLOW GRADUATES OF
FREDERICKTOWN HIGH:
RE: EXPLANATION
and APOLOGY
I well
remember the heroes of my youth--the high school athletes several

speed and gruffness; for their cars, friends, jobs and girlfriends; and
yes, even for their ignoring me, as too small and insignificant a speck to
appear on their radar screens.
If any of my heroes ever
disappointed me, by their conduct in-school or out-, I don't now remember
it. On the contrary, realizing their hold upon the younger generation of
students, they took care NOT to let us down. And to my knowledge, none
did. Read more from Terry...
