I never worked at Russell, but had a relative or two that did work there. My Grandparents worked at Avondale for many many years and retired from there in the early 80's.
Do you still live in the area?[/quote]
No, didn't live there...
I had worked for Champion where I was the VP Sales Western Region... Russell had hired me away to get into or should I say serious about the college bookstore business. They had set up a whole new division and a new facility in Gadston.. use to spend my time between Alex City and there. Made a few trips to Huntsville, and to the Ft. Benning School For Boys... friend from HS was stationed there.
My last trip to Alex City was 1996... I resigned in 1997... they told me I needed to move there to be a better manager... no thanks, not that Alabama isn't nice, its just as the song says, "wish they all could be California girls" 8-)
I make it out the way... I'll look you up, maybe I can finally get out on Lake Martin on a cat<!-- editby --><em>Edited by JohnES on Sep 26, 2016 - 07:15 PM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
