"Love Letters to the Presidents" audio recording of State Rep Jeff Roy - 02/13/22
FM #731 = This is the Franklin Matters radio show, number 731 in the series.
This session of the radio show shares the presentation and talk titled “Love Letters to the Presidents”. Franklin’s State Rep Jeff Roy presented at the Franklin Historical Museum on Sunday, Feb 13, 2022 to a full house. Jeff shared his adventures as he traveled to each of the Presidential libraries and museums.
Mary Olsson, Franklin Historical Commission, provides the very brief introduction to Jeff.
The link to the presentation document is included in the show notes.
The recording runs about 1 hour and 53 minutes, so let’s join Jeff on his journey to the Presidential libraries and museums.
Note: I think you should be able to follow along. While Jeff doesn’t provide page numbers, he does talk to a number of the photos and identifies which one is which on a page.
