A few weeks ago I made a facebook friendship with a very nice person Mrs. Nancy Richey. From the beginning I knew she was the sister of famous tennis player Cliff Richey.
* Number one ranked professional tennis player in the United States (1970) Trying to be conspicuous (hard for me to do) I did not mention to Nancy, how much I
admired and respected Cliff.
Sure enough as the days went by and postings on my wall and others changed, one of them
caught my attention:
Nancy Richey

Anderson, helps kids with scholarships through his foundation...Cliff

For many years Cliff, Ken, Rod, Pancho and many others were my practice partners at the wall where I spent so many hours in such honorable company.
Please say thank you to Cliff for me, his book will be treasured in my shelf.
