WINDER AND BARROW COUNTY HAS LOST ONE OF IT'S TRUE GENTLEMEN WITH THE PASSING OF PETE CRAWFORD, A PERSON OF IMPECABLE MANNERS AND DRESS. PETE WAS ONE OF THOSE FEW HUMANS WHO WAS NOT KNOW TO ME TO EVER SAY SOMETHING DERIDING OF ANOTHER PERSON. IF HE KNEW SOMETHING BAD OF SOMEONE HE JUST KEPT IT TO HIMSELF. PETE WAS A TENACIOUS FRIEND AND COULD TELL YOU MORE SPORTS FACTS THAN JUST ABOUT ANYONE AROUND.
PETE WAS SOMEWHAT PARADOXICAL IN THAT HE WAS A LEATHERY-TOUGH GUY THAT LOVED GOLF AND TROUT FISHING, BUT WAS A FOOD AND DRINK GOURMET AND HE AND FRETA COULD HOST AN OUTSTANDING GATHERING OF FRIENDS WITH ELEGANT FLAIR.
I SHALL MISS HIS FRIENSHIP SORELY, AS WILL MANY, MANY OTHERS. GOODBYE, DEAR FRIEND.
