Ward Lawton (1954)

So sorry to hear of Dud"s passing, I kind of grew up with Dud around the Neely School in College Park, Georgia.  We had the same Friends, Bunky Jones, Donald Thompson, Raven Farmer and many others.  We use to camp out in a area called the pine grove when we were boys thats where Dud broke his shoulder.  I know he will be missed by many.  Ward Lawton  (Class of 1954 CPHS)
