Mr. Futch, visiting with friends this evening from Dade City, I just learned about you, and your books. I too have a background in the cracker days from 1926-1958 at Cummer Sons Cypress Company’s sawmill complex located in Lacoochee, Florida. I knew the Register family and understand one of your stories talk about working with Buford Register. I am a retired journalist and in the past was a staff writer with with The Tampa Tribune in Dade city; then the St. Petersburg Times in Pasco and Hernando Counties. Do you have any memories to share about the Cummer companies or Lacoochee?
