Fred Robinson was a member of the 1949 High School Graduating
Class at Rockport, KY. He ended up living in Evansville, Indiana
and making his home there with a wife and two children. Sometime,
in between, Fred served in the Army in Korea. I do not know much
about Fred's military career and am guessing that he was drafted
into the Army. He served his tour and returned to the Evansville
area to enjoy the freedom that he helped preserve. Thanks Fred,
for your service to our country. Corrections and additions will
be added to this paragraph if material becomes available. Obituary From The Evansville Paper.
