In tomorrow’s Buzzy Podcast, Chief Larry and I feature Billy Fitzgerald Pt. 2. In this episode, Billy discusses a number of subjects and people including Buzzy’s Aunt (and therefore my Great Aunt) Sister Agnes Norris. Tune in tomorrow to hear what Billy has to say about her.
I have done several previous Buzzy blog posts on Sister Agnes including the following one (click here.) To save you from having to click your way through those links, here are a couple of excerpts from a 1984 Enterprise interview with her (click here.) In that interview, Sister discusses her career and how she eventually taught at Morganza/Mother Catherine Spalding before she retired from teaching.
Something else that I picked up on as I re-read the interview with Sister is her mentioning Father Emerick as encouraging her to visit the Sisters of Charity.
This is the same Father Emerick that Pat Woodburn talked about in his Buzzy podcast with us. Pat discussed how Father Emerick was so well liked and respected that many First District folks were named after him.
Music-wise, you may not know who Scotty Emerick is, but you do know all the great hit tunes that he co-wrote with Toby Keith (click here). Here is one tune that Toby recorded first (click here) and then Scotty covered it as a duet with Toby. Both versions are excellent with a slight edge to Scotty’s just because his video here is pretty good too.
