LEFT FOR ARTHUR DALE LINDSEY

POSTED ON 2.28.2025

POSTED BY: Phillip R, Classmate of Arthur Lindsey, 1962-1967

Not a fortunate Son

Arthur Lindsey was a poor boy from the southside of Paducah, who I knew from the 7th grade at Franklin Junior High to the 11th grade at Paducah Tilghman, He dropped out of school to get married, , and was drafted into the army in 1968. While his former classmates of the PTHS class 1968 attending pep rallies, sock hops, and the senior prom, Arthur was dodging bullets in Vietnam. At Franklin Junior High, our fathers had jobs like truck driver or deck hand on a towboat, and mothers toiled at low paid jobs like waitress or at the shoe factory. A rich man's son to college, a poor man's son went to war. My favorite band of the 1960's, Creedence Clearwater Revival, with frontman John Fogerty, summed it up perfectly.

honoring you...

A butterfly lights beside us like a sunbeam
And for a brief moment its glory
and beauty belong to our world
But then it flies again
And though we wish it could have stayed...
We feel lucky to have seen it.
