The Beard that Started Our Enthusiasm

Dr. Jame Ford of Wabash Indiana looked an awful lot like an angry George W. Bush with a Neck Beard. This Handsome Chap's painted portrait from the 1800's inspired the start of our Neck Beard Enthusiasm. He was on the board of directors at what is now Butler University and he would ride his horse for two days (*one way) to come to bi-monthly board meetings. A phenomenal doctor, inventor, soldier, and family man, Dr. Ford is an inspiration to us all.
