BILL KIRKLEY 1966 - 1986 STATION AGENT, SENIOR STATION AGENT DAL DFW STL After Frontier Austin Henry, Terry Vess and myself went into business with a handyman service. We closed it after about 10 years and I went into full time sports officiating. For years I did football (now retired) BUT still do volleyball and baseball/softball. I now run an officiating service called "North East Officials Assoc." I have about 75 guys/gals doing sports. I stopped doing basketball about a year ago so I could have both knee's replaced. While still with FL married a flight attendant named Kitty Wright. We've been married for about 35 years now. Good to hear from some of the old guys. -Bill Kirkley (9/28/03) Post at Online Guest Book for Nelson Embleton July 6, 2007 A great guy to go WEST.
