Here's the profile as it now stands for the Show-Mes' current General Manager/Manager Robert Kenneth Follis. Much of it will be fictionalized, for various reasons, including personal privacy concerns, but there will be some actual facts mixed in from time to time, as I see fit and all here, and in the future, if this thread and the related dynasty here both somehow last long enough. Lord willing, of course.

There actually was someone by that real name in our own real world, but the Robert Kenneth Follis in THIS dynasty's world will be at least a bit different, if not a lot different, from the one who lived in OUR own real world's history. You might want to all keep that in mind here as best as you can, folks, I think. With no further ado, then, let's meet the Missouri Show-Mes' first and current General Manager/Manager, as best as we can here.

Robert Kenneth Follis was born on October 26, 1912 in Wayne, Illinois to Thomas Webster and the former Viola Jane Marledorum, as the eldest child and only son of his parents. Much of his early life was spent in the Midwest, and especially in Kansas. He grew up loved by his parents, and had several friends, but many of his childhood and/or adolescent life experiences are unknown at present.

He has been a fan of and interested in baseball for much of his life. Even as a halfway decent baseball player as a left-handed pitcher, at least. If it hadn't been for World War II and certain other things, he might have pursued a potential playing career for a living. But by the time the United States finally entered World War II, he was already part of the Army Air Corps and married.

While no children had yet been born to him and his wife Florence by that time, they were both still hoping to have children together in the near future. The Army Air Corps decided to keep him Stateside for the duration of the war, and within five or so years of their marriage, they had two children, one a boy, and one a girl. They now make their main off-season home out in Kansas, while their main in-season home is in Chesterfield, Missouri.

After the war ended, he soon encountered the owner of the newly-created Missouri Show-Mes professional baseball team for the American Baseball Refuge Society. It took a bit of negotiation about the terms of employment as the Show-Mes' first General Manager and Manager, but eventually Robert Kenneth accepted Freddy Ruiz's offer to run the Show-Mes' organization as such.

Robert Kenneth is a very good shooter of firearms in his spare time, whenever he gets a chance to shoot guns. He doesn't drink or smoke, and his idea of a great time often includes spending time with family whenever possible, among any number of things that he's usually interested in as he lives his life.

Picture(s) and certain other sufficiently relevant information about him and/or certain other people/events will be shared later as possible and all. However, much of it will definitely be fictionalized, to at least some degree, if not a great degree, for various reasons, including privacy reasons, of course. In reality, my paternal grandfather died in 1948. I have not yet decided his fate here yet, though. CD out.

P.S. The next profile will be for Joe Cihla, the current Assistant General Manager for the Missouri Show-Mes. I will try to have his profile, at least, up by the end of this week, if I can. It may take some time before it and/or certain other profiles are posted here, though, of course. Please stay tuned, as you like and can, folks. CD out.
