Not sure it’s a good idea to “out” people by name who live here. I know I would want my privacy protected.

There were several F.B.I. Agents who had the shootout with Ma Barker and her gang ( her own sons) who lived here for years, but have all since passed, I believe.

Senator Steve Scalise's sister lives here. While she's not famous, her brother is. He's "Still In The Game" after being tragically shot by a lunatic while at early morning Batting Practice in D.C. I was honored to meet him here in TV, but never met his Sis!

Not looking for joke answers. A serious question.

My husband Craig Littler was in front of the camera for 5 decades in Hollywood. He's done over 320 national commercials (Grey Poupon for 13 years...for one), TV shows, movies and singer/dancer in musical comedy theater. You can look him up on IMDB and some of the work he's done is listed there (it doesn't list all of the commercials).

I was going to post that. Also, a couple years ago the Villages Newcomers interviewed “Sudden” Sam McDowell, former major league pitcher. Also at one time it was reported that Mike Bray’s parents lived here.

Ted Danson's "Sam Malone" in Cheers, was loosely based on Sudden Sam McDowell's life. He developed a Retirement Community in Florida, some years back. I did hear he now lives in TV. He had one of the highest Strike Out rates in baseball history.

They have a lovely home, right on the Mallory Golf Course (I don't want to say where). Mrs. Cink often post in TV Groups on FaceBook. Stewart is a great golfer and sometimes plays TV courses when he visits.

Many people live here who were very powerful in business and well known in medicine. I know personally of three billionaires who live here. Connections abound everywhere here to folks in politics and many retired CEO's are here of huge companies. . The first female navigator in the Air Force is a resident. The largest employer in Saskatchewan is a resident here during the high season. The parents of the person in charge of the New York Stock Exchange live here. Lots of very interesting folks live here and I never cease being surprised and delighted about the lives lived before they joined us.

I was never strong enough to swing a baseball bat fast enough to hit any pitch. . I only bunted once on a squeeze play.

sportsguy is her hubby and coachk is his wife.

neither of us are famous, and neither of us have made any career in sports.
both of us are corporate data and computer geeks, and would rather play sports than watch on TV.

but my son's wife's brother is the current starting goal keeper on the US men's national soccer team. = I slept at a holiday inn last night!

My parents had a VHS tape of The Villages from when they visited here in the 1980s. I still have the tape, it featured Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous host Robin Leach, the British guy. So Robin Leach literally came here to show the world how the Rich and Famous live.
