My best friend's father was an Army crypto guy during Korea.
Later on, worked in surveying and zoning for our county. Sharp as a tack, always good at telling long jokes and stories, knew the state of Georgia from one end to the other, could tell you how to get ANYWHERE. Guy was never lost.
Good ol' UGA Ag school graduate, pretty much good at anything he ever did.
Enjoyed Bloody Marys and Bulldog football.
He has Alzheimer's now and it's an unfair fucking shame.
