I’m gonna miss Rev. Ike.

In 1965, I was working for Honeywell EDP as a systems support rep in the Boston Sales Branch. Reverend Ike was a customer. He had leased one of the very first Honeywell 200 computers - - a big deal at the time and super expensive.

He had a room full of women opening envelopes stuffed with so much cash and so many checks that he needed a mainframe computer to keep track of it all.

The women were closely watched by armed guards. His staff watched the guards and the Reverend watched everybody.

Met him several times. Until I saw "Mr T.," Reverend Ike held the record for the most gold on a human being.
