I was just remembering some of the dumb things we did at Northeast High. Ross and Iworked for a food store, and 6 of us kids stole a case of beer. Got caught, but the manager was smart and let us go. Glad Big Ross had such a wonderful career and life. He deserved it. See you up there in a few years big guy. Blessings
