IF YOU WILL ATTEND TRIBUTE TO MICKEY PORTER THEN LET O'CONNOR KNOW NOW!

 

Coming to the tribute to Mickey Porter? Let O’Connor know

Bill O’Connor, former BJ columnist and features writer, needs to know how many will be coming to Mickey Porter’s memorial at Bill’s house so he’ll know whether to prepare for a few or dozens of people.

Here’s Bill’s message to me:

Reminder - Mike and Ben Porter, Mickey Porter's sons, are holding a memorial (party!) at O'Connor's house, 1108 Rambling Way, Bath, next Sunday, May 29, starting at 2 p.m. If you plan to make it, please let O'Connor know via email - loco2732@aol.com. All Beacon folks and their attachments are invited, so you can pass the word in case someone doesn't notice blog. (However, if Olesky finds that out, you're in trouble.)

So, let Bill and Mickey’s sons knows how many will be there. I will try to make it if I get back from West Virginia and my Monongah High Alumni Reunion in time and with enough energy left after a weekend with family and friends in my native state.

So, PLEASE contact Bill and let him know if you plan to attend.

Mickey passed away March 18 at the age of 84 and 10 months. Mickey retired from the BJ in 2006 after 40 years at Ol’ Blue Walls on 44 E. Exchange Street.
