Many fond memories watching him on TV in the 70's. I actually got to meet him I think it was the Summer of 1995. RIP! JP.... |

Yup, I fondly remember J.P., Captain Puget and "Buzzy", Stan Boreson and "Slo-Mo" and "No-Mo" and our Tacoma local guy Brakeman Bill with his partner "Crazy Donkey"!
Ahhhh.....the halcyon days of our youth!
