St. Ron, the Bee Man went to the big bee yard in the sky ten years ago, on this day. Tie o’ the Day pays tribute with its trophy bucks, which happen to be wearing bow ties. Bow Tie o’ the Day honors him with its Santa-hatted dogs. Dad told me once that he thought about becoming a History professor. I think he would have excelled in that career. I often saw him in his rocking chair reading volumes from our encyclopedia set. Decent man.
