Many years ago,when I was just a little girl, I took a photo on Broad Street with Bill Bowen,Sr. and my little brother. That year Fralinger won and he won Best Captain. Every year since then, my one and only BEST STRINGBAND IS FRALINGER!! The angels always smile down on the greatest band in the history of the Mummers Parade!! God Bless and another FABULOUS PERFORMANCE!!!!
