I posted a comment yesterday, must have hit wrong button, trying again. Jeff a great story on Roger Nicholas and his love of music and all of his success over these many years. I know Roger and Dr. Mike Hess have remained in close contact with each other and truly are brothers from another mother and are forever friends. I had the honor and pleasure to work at BHS when Mike, Robbie, Roger and Roger. All were fine students, fine young men and their love for music and the beginning of their band Rage was born. For many years I was the advisor for the Key Club, a service group who had hundreds of hours volunteering for different projects around the city of Bridgeport. Especially many projects with Special Olympics with Bowling at Compton lanes and swimming at the Civic Center pool. Mike Hess was our Key Club president , Mike was a great President and kept the members very busy with all of the volunteering projects. This fine group of young men went to Charleston for the State Key Club Convention. Rage was entered into the talent show, against good competition from all corners of our great state. Rage had a fine performance and brought home I believe the first trophy ever won by our Key club. An outstanding group of young men. I thank them for such wonderful memories. Your forever friend, Counselor, and Key Club advisor. Hugh Gainer.
