Nellie,
You are right about Bud Kennedy but I would oppose your thoughts on Ralph Swearingen if that is the right spelling of his last name. I know the builder who built a house for him and he described him as paranoid. Ralph was a ass kisser of Chief Windham and I was a part of a team that kicked both of their butts in a court case that can be verified by Jack Strickland. Windham did later say it was a mistake after spending approx. 300k of the city’s money.
