Mark Chesnutt

What class was Mark in? Clay Walker, Musician, ?

Mark was Class of '82

Clay Walker would have been Class of '85 I believe, but went to my church's private school his first couple years of high school (he was QB and my brother Jerry was his wide receiver) and moved to Vidor for his last year or 2 in high school.

Bud Hebert - didn't he play pro football for a while? He graduated in the 70's.

Bud graduted in 75 he went to Universirty of Oklahoma. Will ask my Sister Terri who he played for. Bob Mc Dill Nashville Grammy Winner

Bud Hebert, New York Giants

Susie's last name is spelled McAllister Johnny Fuller played for San Francisco 49ers was coach in Lumberton for a while

Clay Walker's mother is one of my best friends, but Clay is a little more stuck up. I guess because he finished school in Vidor, everybody thinks of him as being from Vidor, but I saw him in an interview and he would not admit being from Vidor. He just said he was from a small town near Beaumont.

I just look up the bio for Tex Ritter and found this.....
"Tex lived with his sister while growing up in the Jefferson County town of Nederland. He graduated from South Park High in nearby Beaumont. While attending the University of Texas from 1922 to 1927." So I would guess he graduated in 1921.

William (Bill) Hall - music producer, promoter and publisher. He worked for George Jones and Benny Barnes. Hall also had hits with J.P. Richardson's "Chantilly Lace" and Jonny Preston's "Running Bear". The list goes on and on, Tex Ritter, Ronnie Milsap, Willie Nelson, Janie Fricke, Oak Ridge Boys, Statler Brothers. He was know as "Colonel" on Music Row in Nashville.

Bob McDill - Music Writer
"Happy Man" recorded by Perry Como
"Catfish John" recorded by Johnny Russell
Other hits - "Amanda", "Rednecks, White socks and Blue Ribbon Beer", Baby's Got her Blue Jeans On, Song of the South,Louisiana aturday Night, Good ole' Boys like me, She Don't KNow She's Beautiful, Gone Country, Don't Close your Eyes, Everything that Glitters, She Never Knew Me, and many others. He was songwriter of the year several years in a row.

Tex Ritter was already mentioned.

Also John Alexander - Artist

That's about all I know besides some of the ones already mentioned.

For a quick overview of what Hall and Mc Dill did you can go to Repertoire.bmi.com ... I knew Johnny Russell and actually thought that Johnny wrote several of these songs ... Dale Curl, Class of 66'

Mike Rose,CFO Anadarco Oil (retired)
