description: The traditional and timeless Memorial Park Golf Course has been Houston's cradle of golf since 1935. The inspiration for this little book came a few years back when author Charles Lutz, Dave Marr, Jay and Bernie Riviere gathered in the old snack shack after a round at Memorial for cheeseburgers, insults and memories of playing Memorial with memorable characters. The stories started to flow and Lutz thought they were too good to leave behind. This is a collection of some of those stories as remembered by Dave, Bernie, Jay and their friends from Memorial Park. The stories are about a diverse group of people who had Memorial Park golf in common. Some of them - Jimmy Demaret, Jackie Burke Jr., Tommy Bolt and Dave Marr - won national recognition as players. Others like Red Nose, Runt, Spiz, Oshalee and Trudell simply made their impression on the people they separated from their money. They are all important to the legacy of this great golf course.
