Mac and Becky Davis, Bob Webb, me, John Mueller

With a little memory help I am going to write stories on my brother, Dr. Larry Olson, not just from memory but his friends and other family memories.  So one of the things I want to ask of YOU is to please send me stories you remember about my brother.  They only have to be your perspective and at least 80% true.  Send those to gary@mylifelegacy.co and I may or may not add them to the blog and hopefully a book.  So here goes.

Dr. John Mueller of Edisto (don’t say Adesto or Bob Webb will know you are not from around here) use to fish with Larry and of course they worked at Edisto Research and Education Center near Barnwell, SC.  He said when Larry was shopping for fishing equipment and in particular lures, when Larry found what he wanted he would reach all the way to the back of the display and take ALL of those available.  In fact I can tell you from personal experience that if there is a supply chain problem (2020 and 2021) Bass Pro Shops only needs to call Larry to resupply their inventory.  He has thousands of lures and plastic worms and Bubblegum SuperFlukes all displayed in one of his rooms.  I also should say he has thousands more in well organized and labeled clear plastic boxes.  As a side note every Christmas, he gave all the nieces and nephews and especially the girls fishing lures.  In fact he gave the bright pink Bubblegum SuperFlukes  to the girls.  Now in case you don’t know it each packet contains at least 10 or up to 20.  I don’t know about you but why would a 6 month old, 1, 2, and 3 year old need all those Bubblegum SuperFluckes?  Strangely enough, the girls loved them and played with them.  We found them everywhere, but apparently they are good for bass fishing.  Did I mention that Larry has 6 bass mounted on his dining room wall that are between 11.5 Lbs. and 12.5 Lbs.?

Well, as you know I like to end with a little wisdom and have added a money saving tip so:

What do you learn in the Osage?

·       Bubblegum Supperflukes are not just for fishing

·       A gift from the heart is more important than what it cost

·       It is the memories that we create that are the real value in life

Thanks for listening,

What is your story?

Save a few bucks: Get married because two can live cheaper than one as long as one does not eat and one goes naked.  Sorry, that was just too much fun.  Here goes a real one: Instead of having expensive letterhead, get a good quality printer (I use an HP Office Jet 6300, about $150), nice quality paper (be careful when ordering but I ordered online from Office Depot and saved a bunch by purchasing a case, Note:  some companies don’t include the same number of sheets in a case or order), then develop what you want your stationary to look like.   It is easier and dramatically cheaper.
