A Web Site Makes A Great Birthday Present

It was close to my husband's birthday 2002 when I decided to surprise him with his own web site based on the athletic life of his father, Frank C. Wykoff - Olympic Champion 1928, 1932, and 1936.

I wondered ...How do I recapture the thrills of my father-in-law, Frank Wykoff -- at his exciting moments in time over 74 years ago, and present it to a "space age" audience?

The newspaper accounts of his great athletic accomplishments were fading and discoloring; however, I had an advantage -- I discovered the miracle of a scanner, and learned the skills of creating a web site via a home correspondence course.

I realized that if I didn't attempt to copy to restore Frank's most precious moments in time to a CD, it would all deteriorate in another 25-30 years. While I began to do that, I decided to start a website. I felt he would love that if he were still alive -- and the end of this story is actually the beginning -- THE CHALLENGE ... to create INTEREST ... in the world of sports that changes on a daily basis
