I knew Bob from nursery school ,some of you all may remember Bob from elan . Bob was in the main house in poland springs and then when they broke up the house into 2a and 6 (both in waterford).
I went to 2a and Bob went to 6 . Bob use to split quite often ,more times than the fingers and thumb you have on one hand.
The last time I saw Bob was in C'ville 1989. Bob stood every bit of six foot 11 inches and weighed around 270 .It was great to see him we talked a little about that hell hole (elan ) and both agreed that elan in our opinions was the sickest most twisted place that we had ever experienced .
you see back in those days elan was just starting to take kids and there were a lot of adults there,when we were there and the SHIT (sorry for lack of a better word )that we youngsters had to WATCH ,as elan and its henchmen made these ADULTS do sick horrendously brutal things to each other (both physically and psychologically ) Imagine how it made us feel Talk about learned hopelessness and intense fear pushed on to us by witnessing this lunacy.
If Bob were here with us today ,he passed away last summer .He certainly would be standing with us in wanting to expose elan for what it was and in some of our minds still is .
I probably should have posted this last summer and I am sorry that I did not .
