To his generation, he was Bill Wright.
To my generation, he was known as "Candybar".
The younger children called him "Mister Candy".
The nickname began back in the 1930's, because
he loved candy-root-beer barrels and so his classmates
began calling him "CandyBarrel".
The Bozmans thought he looked a bit like Ernest Hemmingway, when he was sleeping
in his chair ,under his favorite tree.
Any way you looked at him, he was a character.
He loved spending time in the post office lobby, eating all my mint candy.
Some times, as a joke ,I would send him down to the old Howeth Hardware, telling
him that Richard and Dale had hot coffee and donuts....he would leave....then the phone would ring...and the soft voice
of Mr Fred Greenfield would remind me that a pay back would be coming my way soon!
Sadly,he passed away in 2004.
