Haysbert Sr., whose Parks Sausage Co. became the first black-owned business in the U.S. to go public in 1969, has died at age 90. He died Monday at Union Memorial Hospital in Baltimore after suffering from congestive heart failure, his son Brian Haysbert said Tuesday. Born in poverty, Haysbert later became a World War II fighter pilot and member of the famed Tuskegee Airmen, serving in Africa and Italy before settling in Baltimore. There, he joined the company started by Henry Parks that became well known throughout the Northeast by advertisements featuring a hungry boy asking, "More Parks Sausages, Mom, please!" Wow...a black guy gets out of the military and is a man of significant accomplishment...and our three white righties who were in the military....flajim, herring, and bertbrain...are men of no accomplishment. What a man he was. So what's your story douchebag? Are you saying that if you had only gone into the military, you too could have achieved greatness? The men of Krause. Cowards all. Wow, Harry posts a story about a man who wasn't a coward. -- John H "No, Donnie is not that stupid. He's only *pretending* to be that stupid!" If you notice, Krause does this occasionally when he feels the need for social redemption. Maybe this will help relieve his guilt over his neglect of duty in your countries armed service. |
