Baroody can enlighten us with his stories of the past in Florencegetting stuck in his Model T Ford when the dirt streets turned to mud. deliveries in his pickup truck. the first bought in Florence. the panic when the Depression hit. and how prohibition affected his beverage business. His wisdom is also noted in his philosophy. To Mr. Baroody. all Americans are immigrants. He says that everybody except the Indians "came from across the water." He is particularly proud of his American citizenship because he is "an American by choice. not by birth." Mr. Baroodys contributions to Florence and the surrounding communities cannot be measured.
