History
1969
904 Janssens
Ralph McReynolds & ME
1969 The year I first set foot in the lofts of Ralph McReynolds and his "904" Janssen's of Oklahoma City.
I was relatively a young man and Ralph was in need of someone to clean his lofts and my involvement in the Sport of Pigeon Racing began.
Ralph would give me a bird every once in awhile and I didn't know it at the time, but I was building a family of birds that would eventually make me a top competitor in the Southwest.
I won many races by crossing the "904's" as did a lot of other lofts across the United States. I was very fortunate to have the last remaining son of "904".
Ralph is now gone and for the most part so are the "904's", but the experience and knowledge I gained from "The Man and His Birds" will stay with me forever.
