Robert Walter "Bobby"Dews was born in 1939 in Clinton, Iowa, the son of a minor-league infielder in the St. Louis Cardinals system.
Dews remembered the first year out of West Georgia as a "really beautiful situation." He was back in Edison teaching high-school English and history during the off season, and spending the summer playing baseball in various minor-league towns.
Dews' career is a broader lesson in persistence, determination, and the realization that ambition may sometimes find its own path to fulfillment.
