A Living Legend At 104

Hi All:

With the sad passing of two Great War veterans last week, I thought you might be interested in a two page spread on the life of a living legend, William 'Duke' Procter.

Here's the story of a man who took up bowling at 80 and made a parachute jump at 100!

William 'Duke' Procter (Part 2)

I spoke with Yvonne yesterday and she said 'Duke' is healthy and going strong. Yvonne had a five or six hour interview with Mr. Procter and said he's quite the guy. Since the article was published on Friday, she's received numerous e-mails about the life and times of Mr. Procter.
