Once a Bear

Once a Bear is a beautiful reflection of growing up in a time when life was simple and fun, the lifelong friendships and the bond of growing up together etched an eternal connection. We are the last. We drank water from garden hoses and were thankful. Stayed out till dark. Rode our bikes without helmets, and we learned how to say "Yes, Ma'am," and "Yes, Sir." And all the parents were allowed to beat our butts. We are proud to say, "Once a Bear, always a Bear." God has a special place in Heaven carved out for the Mighty Bears.
