  • Mr. Gillan

    I went to visit my dear old friend Bob Gillan of Thorntown, IN at the nursing home today.  He has been a mentor to me about bluebirds, and lots of other things.  He is 92 years old and has continued to do a lot, but now he has cancer and is not doing well and just this week has gone to the nursing home.  I should add he is one of the main people who has taught me about bluebirds, but also lots of other things. A truly amazing individual.  Boy the stories I have listened to about his life growin up on a farm, about his years in WWII, being a farmer, pilot, ham radio operator, and a teacher!
    Here is a little video of him.
