I played little league baseball for south Asheville. I remember her from my earliest childhood memories. That picture is exactly how I remember her. She was a good woman. Good enough to be a memory from 1986. I had so many good times at the old ballfields, and she did everything for the little league it seemed. I remember Bill Stewart too. Thanks for impacting my life. If anyone else ever played for the old south asheville 1986-1995ish my email is mthaney4@gmail.com. It would be cool to hear from someone from that period in my life.
