Swampy's Florida

Today remembering Swampy’s old friend Bill Coleman.

Bill was part of the D-Day Normandy invasion in France that turned World War II around and led to the defeat of Hitler’s dream of taking over the world.

He returned to Orlando and helped shape the leadership, politics and expansion of businesses in the area.
He was a personal friend I was honored to know and spend time with.
The stories he could tell!

Sadly, Bill died in December 2012.

Here’s an interview Bill did with ‘Growing Bolder’ a couple years before he died:
