Hi Bobby...Dale has been a regular on the show, but if I recall, he announced his retirement from playing last year. Not sure if he'll be there?

Thanks Dennis,
Dale and I played together in Bluegrass, IA a few years back. I plan to make it to the show. If you get the chance, would you tell Dale I said hello.
Thanks again,

Hi Guys--I was an Iowegion until "86" . I recall a good picker over in the Eastern side someplace by the name of Dale Kerr I believe. Do you guys know him ? I was over in the Oskaloosa/Ottumwa area a while then over west around Osceola/Leon area. Used to harass DeVere some -- |

Hi Tom---We didn't have much choice when we left Iowa back in "86" (we were hungry) That was back after the agriculture and oil patch crash and we lost about everything we had worked for and came to this part of Arkansas because things were still growing right in this area. It has been a struggle getting back on our feet but God has been good to us and we have our own building company here now. If you like, you can take a quick peek at my web site www.amkobldgs.com
Say hi to DeVere for me-- Bill Myrick[This message was edited by Bill Myrick on 29 December 2001 at 08:46 AM.] |

Dale Kerr should be in Ottumwa or Fairfield.
I've known him for years. He is a very good steel picker. I had the opportunity to work with him several years ago at a very nice supper club just north of Bloomfield 4-5 miles.
Also worked MANY times with DeVere..also a great picker and person! regards, fred jack |
