REGGIE ANDREWS, BASEBALL HALL OF FAME



Click on the above to enlarge.

Reggie Andrews was a star baseball player of the Georgia Bulldogs, 1953-55.  He played the summer of 1955 in the Pittsburgh farm system before joining the Air Force.   Above is  Reggie's SEC Baseball Legends card, front and back.  He was inducted into the Macon, GA Sports Hall of Fame in April 2006.

When Anna first joined the AFPRO/LOCKHEED Contracts office in Marietta, Reggie was Chief of Contracts.  The few times I have met him, his eyes seemed to glitter with warmth and sincerity, a kind, witty smile on his face.
The above card said he has been an ordained minister for the past 16 years.  I bet his warm smile does him well in that field.  Yesterday Reggie joined a group of AFPRO retirees for lunch.  Anna said it was good to see him again!
