Jim Remler and The BGA

I met Jim Remler in the Spring of 2008 after expressing an interest in joining the BGA. Jim sat down with me in the club room and we had a great chat during which he explained the workings of the BGA. Later in the day, thinking about the two outstanding items stuck in my mind, regarding the purpose of the BGA. The first was that each person enjoy the golf, good or bad, signified by the motto, "Bad but Proud". Once in a while as we travel the road of life we meet a person(s) who leaves an indelible impression on us. Jim Remler is such a person. He wears no crown, carries no scepter, has no title but has devotion and help from members who make the BGA work. He is just plain Jim Remler, what you see and hear is what you get. That's the way he wants it and that's the way he likes it. Know something? That's the way I like it too. Larry Mahoney. 9/20/08.
