We remember the late  John O'Donnell Rosales , President of The Sons of Spanish American War Veterans, Cuba Libre Camp #172.   John died in 2014.    We recorded several shows with John over the years.   He was always very informative and quite a fan of The Spanish American War 1898.

Bob Uecker died 2 weeks shy of turning 91 We remember him and the "Cleveland Indians" because of that great comedy from the 1990's.
