You don't know how many times I've driven by this guy off Exit 6 of the Massachusetts Turnpike in Chicopee and not taken his picture. Finally, I had good light and wasn't in a hurry. He has been welcoming travelers to the Plantation Inn "Southern Hospitality in New England" for about ten years. Before that he worked at a Ford dealership in Springfield for thirty years.
I LOVE that guy. My son is attending Western New England College in Springfield so we see him alot!! Thanks for the history of it!

He's a friendly guy, greeting people day and night.
