More info on Leonard Matlovich...

 

Leonard Matlovich was one of our heroes, and I feel very honored to have met him. During a lengthy trip to California in 1980, I visited him for a weekend. At that time he was living in Russian River and was operating Stump Holler Annie's Pizza Parlor, which he bought with proceeds from the settlement he received from the Air Force. The candid pic is one I took of him there.
