First Mohammed Ali, Friday it was Gordie Howe and today Ron Mason.

Ali had not lived in Michigan for a good number of years. He was a resident of Arizona. My oldest daughter's AP English class had a long-term assignment regarding Ali's original biography back in the mid-90's. The teacher arranged a meeting after the assignment was over at a McDonald's in Berrien Springs, MI. I wasn't there but made sure my daughter got an autograph picture from him. I just turned around to look at it. Of course, you never get a true feeling from your own teenager of how the visit went. I know she thought he was quiet but funny.
