On October 14th, 1975 ,  our dad,
Troy A French and his friend Geo. Cunningham,
(both from Hardin, MT) appeared on the
popular night-time show:
'TO TELL THE TRUTH'
George was a range detective for a large cattle corporation in MT and WYO. and the show contacted him after seeing an article in the National Geographic.
They asked him to appear on the show and to bring a friend with him to appear as well
(one who may know some of those 'tricky western questions..')
Dad was THRILLED to take George up on the offer!
They both had a wonderful time in New York City
doing the show and meeting the cast of talented people.
Fortunately,  dad did get a copy of the show
I took some pictures to present here.
(Just wish I could put in the sound effects as well.)
Unless you are real real young,  you may recognize the host and the panel of four.
Garry Moore    Bill Cullen, Peggy Cass,  Kitty Carlisle, and Orson Bean

Dad had a wonderful time, and we have loved watching this tape and laughing at the GOOD clean-humor shared by the cast and the host.

Dad passed away on January 3rd, 2005.
His family is so thankful for what he taught us, and the wonderful stories he left for us to enjoy, time and time again. Please click here to see his 'story'.
We miss you dad !
