Late bloomer
AUBURN - For more than 40 years, Gil Ward has rarely stepped away from the bowling alley.
Ward, 90, has dedicated much of his time over the past four decades to the game that came to him rather late in life.
“I started when I was about 50,” Ward said. “I started bowling at Starlite when it first opened. I had a neighbor who was in a league and they had someone drop out, so me and my wife, Becky, joined and we bowled in that mixed league. And I've been bowling ever since.”
