Folks
Most of you know by now that California has lost a "Real Son" in Woody
Plaugher. Thanks to Compatriot Barron Smith and Compatriot Vern Padgett for
helping pass the word.
Camp 1804 members please know that we will invite his niece and her family
who lives in Fresno to a dinner meeting. His brother who's family lives in
nearby Woodlake will also be invited. His brother was a World Known Bull Fighter
(Rodeo Clown.) I don't think many people within the SCV knows that. I have
attended a few of his FCC (Fellow of Christian Cowboys) meetings and still
use my FCC Bible he gave me years ago.
Woody had an awesome personality and loved his Confederate Heritage. Most
of all Woody was a man of outstanding Character and never had a bad thing
to say about any one person. Please place Woody Plaugher in your prayers.
I do not have my full address book recorded within my new comcast book and
I would appreciate you folks if you would pass onto others the news of Woody
Plaugher, a very loved California "Real Son" within the Sons of Confederate
Veterans.
Thank you Barron Smith as I know you have had your own very serious health
problems. Thank you for being a good friend to Woody and all you have done for
him. You have been an inspiration as I know you have been the one who has helped
him at every National Reunion I have been to. God Bless you for that and please
know you are still in my prayers.
I was not able to make our past Division Reunion because I was at a GEC
meeting. I will always remember the two Reunions (2007 &
2006) before our 2008 Reunion, in Bakersfield. Commander Kenny Ramsey at
each Reunion hosted Woody's Birthday party. At our 2007 Reunion,
Commander Ramsey presented Woody with the most beautiful Confederate Flag
birthday cake. At the same reunion our members, and Woody had the privledge of
singing "Dixie" that was broadcasted over 5 different radio stations at the
Crystal Palace in Bakersfield with Buck Owens.
Again I ask you to please place Woody's family within your prayers. I send
to you a picture of Woody and Camp 1804 1st Lt. Commander Russell Snow.
God Bless
Chuck Norred
