That sounds like a cool area and from all I've heard he was a great guy and
that seems to reinforce it.

I was in Scouts back in the mid-70's and we were at a National Jamboree in
Idaho out in the middle of nowhere at the bass of the Grand Teatons (Army
truck drove us back in there) and he actually flew in one night and
entertained THOUSANDS of Scouts from all OVER the world. And I heard latter
that he did it for free.

Not really.  This was Simi Valley, Calif., early to mid 80s, just after 
Trudi & I and the kids moved there.

His place was called "Hopetown"; it had been an amusement park before he 
bought it, and he still allowed its use for community functions.  So I 
was there for Simi Valley Wild West Days.

He was there, in a reception line, but that's not really "meeting" 
someone.

I used to see his white limo around town quite a bit, though only on the 
east end, near Hopetown and the stores right around Hopetown that 
catered to the long-term dwellers instead of the recent "development" 
people.  Two of those stores were owned by a friend of mine, so I heard 
some secondhand stories, but that was it.
