Thank you Lorne Rubenstein, for your wonderful book about Moe. Certainly added to my memories of the great man!!!!
I was very fortunate to have played a couple dozen rounds with Barbara when she was an IBM exec, before she became the USGA official.

He’s passed on at 80, hope he gets lots of games with Seve, Moe, and Rocket Richard. Carolyn and I met Sven in 1974, at LaManga in Spain. We were ... Full Story »
Can an old pro (scratch) and his wife (16 hdcp) enjoy playing a 5181 yard (tips) par 68 golf course? The answer is yes, we haven’t so much fun since Lido closed in Oakville.
