DALLAS MAN KILLED IN BOSSIER WRECK
A Dallas man died Monday when he lost control of his car on Interstate 20 in Bossier Parish.
Hardy Greenwood, 75, possibly blacked out or suffered a heart attack prior to the wreck, state police said.
Greenwood veered off of I-20 about two miles west of Goodwill Road. His car traveled across the median, over the opposite lanes and finally struck a treeline. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

Lee Trevino

On returning to civilian life, Trevino wasted little time continuing his relationship with the game. With the encouragement of Hardy Greenwood, a Dallas driving-range proprietor and also his employer, he began working for his Class A card. For the next five years his life revolved around working and playing in golf clubs. His killer instinct was being continuously refined, serving him well during his first full-time season on the Tour in1967 when he finished in 45th place and earned over US$26,000.
