FalconFanSince1970 24,183 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 This time it was Leonard King, 8 Ball. True Falcon and great man. Many on TATF, or even on the current Falcon staff won't know who he is. Maybe some posters from the old Smith regime. Doubt it. Buddy used to cut our tapes back in the late 70s and early 80s when we were starting to roll. Back when you really had to cut tape. He was one of my pop's best friends. A couple decades ago I told my pop, daddy you're gonna out live most of us. He has. He lost the last of his besties this week. Live on pops. Make it to your 94th birthday next month. Hang in there and hope we get some rest. We're due. Maybe this year. 8 Ball thanks for the good work sir! Send us some heavenly love and a little bit of good luck. We need it. I'll never forget you. Rest easy my friend. 🥇 FFS1970 Sportsman2593, Peteshweddy, SleepyJoeB and 17 others 11 3 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
