They will tell you they are
nothing alike, but Drew and
Ada Reddish of Starke will also
tell you that in the early stages
of their relationship, they knew
they were meant for each other.
“I wouldn’t trade her for
anything,” Drew said. “She was
always the one, no question
about it.”
Drew’s first sighting of Ada
in the halls of Bradford High
School had quite the effect on
him. As it turned out, Drew had
quite the effect on Ada, too.
“I had heard of him from
my cousins. One of them went
to school with him,” Ada
explained, referring to the time
when she was still a student at
the school in Lawtey before
transferring to BHS. “I had heard
about Drew Reddish. There was
just something about that name.
I just felt like we were destined.”
It’s hard to argue with that
logic as Ada and Drew are set to
celebrate their 60th anniversary.
The date is Friday, Feb. 1, but
a party is planned for Saturday,
Feb. 2, from 6 p.m. until 9 p.m.
at the Starke Golf and Country
Club.
It all began at Bradford High
School, where Drew was a
senior and Ada a sophomore.
Ada lived in Lawtey, and in
those days, Lawtey students did
not start attending BHS until
their sophomore years.
“I saw her walking down the
hall,” Drew said. “I was in class.
I said, ‘Who in the heck is that?
I haven’t seen her before.’ From
that time on, I started chasing
her from time to time.”
So, what was the attraction?
Drew said, “She looked so
innocent. It was like she was
slipping down the hall so pure.”
“He felt sorry for me, I think,”
Ada said with a laugh.
The two dated off and on that
one year together in high school
and while Drew attended the
University of Florida. Drew said
it seemed like the relationship
was about to enter an off period
as he was taking a trip with a
fraternity brother to Colorado the
summer between his sophomore
and junior years at UF.
“I said, ‘Well, I’ll fix that.’ I
borrowed some money from my
uncle, and I bought her a ring,”
Drew said. “I said, ‘Hey, we’re
engaged. That means we’re
steady now, for sure.’”
As Ada remembered the
incident, it was hardly the way
such matters unfolded in the
movies.
“We were in a car coming to
Starke from Lawtey, going to
the movies, I guess,” Ada said.
“My sister and her boyfriend
were with us. All of a sudden,
he threw something in my lap.
He said, ‘I guess you might like
this.’ That was my ring, and that
was my proposal, I guess.”
Drew said, “I don’t remember
that,” to which Ada replied,
“Well, I do.”
When asked if there was any
hesitation on her part to say
“yes,” Ada laughed and said,
“He didn’t ask me (anything). I
just put the ring on.”
At that time, Ada was living
and working in Jacksonville.
Neither Ada nor Drew owned

REDDISH
Continued from 1B
a car, and with Drew attending
classes and working as well, the
two did not see each other that
often.
Therefore, when Christmas
approached after she received
her ring, Ada was looking
forward to spending more time
with Drew. However, Drew had
the opportunity, as an ROTC
cadet, to go on a trip to Cuba
during the Christmas break,
courtesy of the Transportation
Corps.
“Well, I’d never been out of
Florida, much less the country,”
Drew said. “I signed up to go for
free.”
Ada did not like hearing that.
She told Drew if that’s what he
was going to do, he could take
his ring back and leave.
“I did,” Drew said. “I thought
she wanted to get rid of me
anyway, so I said, ‘To heck with
her. I’m gone.’”
Looking back on the incident,
Drew said what was funny was
when he told his parents about
what had happened.
“My mother didn’t have an
engagement ring,” Drew said.
“I said, ‘Now, you’ve got one.’
I gave it to her. Her reaction
was, ‘What am I going to tell
the ladies at the hairdresser’s?’
They had been talking about the
wedding.
“I said, ‘Tell them we’re not
together anymore.’”
Ada said she honestly didn’t
know if she would see Drew
again after that. Approximately
nine months later, though, a
cousin of Drew’s who roomed
with him at UF suggested they
invited their old girlfriends to
the homecoming dance. Drew
said he “fell” for that and wrote
a letter to Ada doing just that.
Later, Drew called Ada and
asked if she would accept the
invitation. She said she wasn’t
sure, to which Drew quickly
responded, “That’s OK.” Ada
said she thought to herself, “Oh,
my gosh. He’s going to hang
up.”
Ada quickly told Drew she
thought she could go ahead and
make her mind up and responded
that she would go with him.
“I did get that ring back,” Ada
said.
Drew said he told Ada the
“long engagement” was over.
They were getting married, and

they did on Feb. 1, 1953.
“We got married between
semesters,” Drew said. “That
was a pure idiotic thing to do.
We didn’t have any money.”
Drew found a little apartment
they could rent for $50 a month.
Ada went to look for a job to
help support them, but she
would tell people she could only
work until June because that
was when Drew would graduate.
“He got so mad at me for
saying that,” Ada said.
“Nobody wanted to hire her,”
Drew said.
Ada eventually got a parttime job in the office of the UF
president, which lasted a month.
She went back to Jacksonville
and where she worked before.
“I lived with mother up there,
and he moved to Starke and lived
with his parents,” Ada said.
When Drew graduated from
UF, the couple lived in Virginia
while Drew was at Fort Eustis—
the home of the Transportation
Corps. Drew said he had the
opportunity to move from the
Army Reserve into the regular
Army, which was his plan. He
said he told Ada of that, but she
insisted he didn’t tell her until
his time with the Army Reserve
was almost up.
Ada was expecting the
couple’s first child, and she told
Drew she was moving back to
Lawtey if he planned to stay in
the Army. She had no intention
of traveling.
The couple moved to Starke,
where Drew worked at DuPont
while also serving in the Florida
National Guard.
“That was one of the first
times she told me what I had to
do,” Drew said.
Ada, by nature, is quiet. In
fact, Drew said his six brothers
asked him, “Gosh, where did
you find her? That’s the most
quiet woman I’ve ever seen.”
Drew said he is the exact
opposite, something Ada can
attest to. She discovered Drew
likes to have company. Whether
it’s breakfast, lunch or dinner,
he likes to be around people.
“He can’t just invite a couple
or two,” Ada said. “We’ve got to
have a houseful.”
Drew said it has been the
biggest bone of contention
between him and Ada.
“I guess our biggest thing is
she loves to be by herself,” Drew
said. “I love to have people
around. We’ve had a heck of a
time about that, really.”

Registration periods are set

Saturdays from 10 a.m. until 1

complex and Winn-Dixie.
All registrants must have

“She won’t even stretch the
truth enough to get a job,”

immediately after their marriage.

Ada and Drew Reddish on their wedding day of Feb.
1, 1953.
Ada remembered an incident
where Drew told her he had
invited a couple to dinner one
night. The invitation came in the
midst of a multiple-week period
when Ada was helping the
Junior Woman’s Club prepare
for a show. She insisted they
were not going to have anybody
over for dinner before the show,
but in the end, they wound up
having the couple for dinner.
“He says I win every
argument,” Ada said. “I don’t
think so.”
Drew, however, said, “She
got her way a lot more than she
realizes, I think.”
Still, despite their conflicting
personalities, Drew and Ada said
there really haven’t been that
many disagreements between
them. However, it’s probably
best they don’t play bridge as
partners, Ada said, reflecting on
the time they were members of a
bridge club.
“I might would win a hand,”
Ada said, “and he would say,
‘Well, you shouldn’t have the
way you played it.’”
In life, though, Ada and Drew
have played their cards just
right. Drew put in a 40-plusyear career at DuPont, which
included having the family
live in Wilmington, Del., and
Geraldton, Australia, and he
and Ada raised three sons: Stan,
Tommy and Doug.
Drew said Ada deserved a
lot of credit for raising the boys
while he was busy with work.
“They were three little bulls,
copies of their birth certificates.
Registration fees are $75
(T-ball), $75 (softball), $85
(rookie), $90 (minor) and $95
(major/Dixie Boys).

year on Monday, Feb. 4, at

Fairgrounds.
I tell you,” Drew said. “They
were healthy and robust, and
here was Ada, weighing 105
pounds trying to deal with that.”
Drew may give Ada the lion’s
share of the credit for taking
care of the boys, but Ada said he
has taken care of her.
“I always knew he would take
care of me,” Ada said. “There
was never a doubt in my mind.
There has never been a time
where I was not taken care of.”
Sure, “hard-nosed” Drew is
hard to be “mushy” with—the
so-called proposal is proof of
that—but he does care, Ada
said. For their 50th anniversary,
Ada said Drew had written a
note that accompanied his gift
to her. In it, he wrote how much
she meant to him and how he
was sorry he didn’t always
express that to her.
“It was the sweetest thing I
think I have ever read,” Ada
said.
Drew said Ada is delightful to
be around.
“She just never has negative
things about her,” Drew said.
“She doesn’t talk about other
people. She’s, to me, a very pure
person.”
Drew, though, couldn’t help
Terwillegar will cater the event,
while musical performances will
feature Ben Carter and Drew’s
sister-in-law Sylvia Reddish.
“We just had our 50th, it seems
like,” Ada said. “I didn’t think
we’d live that long, but we did,
and here we are—60. We might
make our 70th. Who knows?”

6B
HONOR
Continued from 1B
trust of her colleagues. Not a
week passes—and this is true—
an elections worker from another
county doesn’t call here to tap
into Carol’s broad knowledge
base in the elections realm.
“As great as she’s been
as an assistant supervisor of
elections, it’s only surpassed by
her reputation as a wonderful
human being. She epitomizes
what it means to be a Christian
lady and a public servant.”
During the Jan. 25 reception,
Vaughan read letters Milner
received from Gov. Rick Scott
and Sen. Bill Nelson. The letter
from Scott, in part, read: “Your
dedication and conscientious
work are admirable, and I
know you’ll be missed by
your colleagues. I commend
you for your public service.
Congratulations
on
your
accomplishments. Wishing you
a happy and healthy retirement,
and may you continue to find
challenge and reward in the
years ahead.”
Carol Milner
gets a hug
from Terry
Vaughan after
he presents her
with a picture.
The letter from Nelson, in
part, read: “I appreciate your
dedication and commitment to
serving the people of Florida.
You will certainly be missed.”
After the letter from Nelson
was read, Milner was presented
with an encased U.S. flag that
was flown over the U.S. Capitol
at the request of Nelson as a way
of honoring her.
A tearful Milner talked
of her career and how she
enjoyed serving the voters and
candidates in Bradford County.
She promised that during future
elections, she would return and
help out in any way she could.
“Even if it’s meeting the poll
workers coming in at night
and helping them with all their
stuff,” she said.
Vaughan said the Bradford
County Commission may have
proclaimed Jan. 25 as “Carol
Milner Appreciation Day,” but
every day of the 21-plus years
he has worked alongside her
was “Carol Milner Appreciation
Day.”
“She means so much to all of
us,” Vaughan said.

Fishing
report, bass
tournaments
and more
Paul Phillips of Starke noted
that the fishermen encountered
several bass beds during
the
Bradford
Bassmasters
tournament at Lake George on
Jan. 5. The lake is 80–100 miles
south of Starke, and several
large spring runs temper the lake
water on the western shore.
Joey Tyson of the Bald Eagle
Bait and Tackle in Keystone also
confirmed these descriptions
and anticipates the bass will
be staging for their anticipated
spawn shortly. He also noted
that crappies from Clay County
lakes indicated fish roe lately
when cleaned.
This is also consistent
with Gary Simpson’s weekly
Gainesville fishing report in
most of the Alachua and Marion
County lakes. However, this is
not consistent with reports of
Kingsley Lake and its deeper
water. Apparently, some of
the large female bass are
moving into shallower water in
preparation of their spawn in the
shallower lakes and the lakes
south of Starke.
The Lake Butler Bass Club
held its January tournament on
Jan. 5 on the Santa Fe River
at Sandy Point. Sandy Point
is paddling distance from
the Suwannee River, and the
location is somewhat unique to
bass fishermen from Clay and
even Bradford counties. Cody
Douglas and Dean Elixson
brought in the top five fish,
which totaled approximately 10
pounds. That weight is small
primarily because it includes
Suwannee bass—a beautiful but
somewhat smaller fish—as well
as largemouth bass.
The club’s next tournament
will be at Sampson and Rowell
lakes and subsequently will be
on the first Saturday of each
month.
Anyone interested in fishing
with the Lake Butler club should
contact Dean Elixson.
The Bradford Bassmasters
Club
held
its
January
tournament on Jan. 19 on Lake
George, launching just north of
Silver Glen Springs at M-Port
Ramp. The group encountered
the heavy wind after-effects of
a cold front, but did respectively
anyway. C.K. Ryan and John
Reis caught the top five fish,
which totaled 16.11 pounds,
and the big fish at 7.65 pounds.
Ron Corbin and Danny Weldon,
of Baldwin, placed second,
and Danny and Jesse Gathright
placed third.
The Bassmasters club has
finalized its 2013 tournament
schedule as listed below. (Note
specifically that the Feb. 23
tournament on Rodman at the
Kenwood ramp is an open meet.
If anyone would like to compete,
they can do so by paying only
the tournament charge. The club
dues are exempted.)

The Florida Bass Network
also fished Lake George on Jan.
19, launching at the Welatka
Ramp. The winning five fish
also totaled approximately 17
pounds, and the FBN, like the
other club, reported some bass
beds on the western shore of the
lake. The FBN will be fishing
Santa Fe Lake for its Feb. 2
tournament, and moonwise, that
tournament should be in for an
active fish day.
One
observation
should
be made about the impact of
tournament fishing on the
bass population. Tournament
fishermen are good fishermen—
they fish hard, and they catch
many large fish. It is an accepted
practice, however, that all
tournament fish be released
unharmed. As a matter of
fact, most clubs will penalize
a fisherman if a fish dies. So
these fishermen are good
conservationists as well as good
fishermen.
The Jacksonville Daily
Record announced on Dec. 21,
2012, that Bass Pro Shops plan
to open a store on I-95, 17 miles
south of I-10 in north St. Johns
County. The store is scheduled to
open in the first quarter of 2014,
subject to planned interstate
alterations and tax negotiations.
That will shorten the previous
drive to Orlando for all those
outdoorsmen who feel obligated
to visit periodically.
Remember the following
dates for your outdoors calendar:
• Jan. 26, full moon;
• Feb. 10, new moon;
•
Feb.
21, Crosshorn
Ministries monthly meeting at

• Feb. 25, full moon. Tight lines and safe hunting
until next week.
