Happy Birthday Leo Mollet!


Someone call the fire department, if you count all the candles on this Wildcat's cake. It's 78 for Leo Mollet, a Wapella original, and one of the most legendary men in DeWitt County. Happy Birthday Leo, shown here in a vintage shot from his WFD days.

H/T Tom Mollet for the photo and heads up

Great guy, none finer. Happy b-day Leo. Can't think of anyone currently more deserving of w.com/dewitt ill. salute than yourself. (PS - am guessing that Kent Harris was fire chief when picture was taken?)RJT
