    My father and mother, Errol & Myrtle Drollinger were examples of love and charity to anyone in need. Their home was home. Always welcoming to anyone that came to visit. I wish I could go visit today but those days are long gone. The memories are there of a loving home full of the smell of homemade food, laughter, fun and love.

      NEVADA STATE SENIORS GOLF CLUB: Time for tee
      Monthly tourneys filled with spirit of friendly competition
      By JOHN ASAY
      SPECIAL TO VIEW
      It's one thing to go out with the guys on a regular golf outing, throw around the mulligans and take the gimme putts on your way around the course. It's another to play under tournament rules, established handicaps, competing for prizes, and perhaps succumbing to peer pressure.
      If you're among the latter group, you need to check out the Nevada State Seniors Golf Club. Spearheaded by local golf fanatics attorney George Franklin, Hirsh Trumbo, Hank Adams, Andy Badick, Errol Drollinger, Art Hansen, Dave Jamison, Glen Neely, and Leon Pounders some 35 years ago, the purpose of the club is to encourage friendly meetings and tournaments for senior golfers residing in Nevada and surrounding states.
