    John I dont remember a younger brother either but could be wrong also. I was at Sharpstown when Donny stopped by for a visit. Hes alot bigger now then when he raced. It was good seeing him and talking about the old days.

    My mother was Hanks Second wife Tibby, they married around 1961.Tracy,Craig and Shannons mom was Blake.

    Hank's first wife was "TRACY OGDEN" her pen name...AKA Blake Gilpin, correct? So, Shannon, Tracy and Craig's mom's real name was Blake????

    Tracy Ogden was a pen name as well, as was Blake Gilpin, but her real first name I believe was Blake. If you go back through all the Boat Sport magazines both she & Hank had various pen names. Ed Hatch's who's web site has all the old Boat Sport & Speed & Spray magazines probably can tell you all of their pen names. I think that I remember Hank re-marrying, as the name Tibby sounds familiar.

    Blake Gilpin was Blakes maiden name.Ogden was Hank's moms (my grandmothers) middle name.Tracy's (my sister) middle name is Ogden. a few of my dads pen names used Shannon , Craig, and Tracy as part of the name.
