| June 26, 2005 I am a new member of Friends of Coal. I would like to extend an interesting fact. My father Ronald Largent, is a Long wall Maintenance Supervisor for Emerald Resources in Waynesburg PA. He and his men made history last week, when they dug the widest face in the country. So I would like to let everyone know how proud I am of he and his crew and say that I am proud to be a Coal Miners Daughter. | |
