Stamford
| I wish to thank John Dee Weldon for the
information and pictures taken from the 1927 Stamford High School Year Book of His
grandfather Dee Sanders Weldon. Pop as he was known by his family and friends, Graduated
from Stamford high School. His life long work was in the Soft Drink industry. mostly for
Dr. Pepper soft drink Co., he was diligent about labeling the pictures, something we wish
everyone would do.
