Artist Corky Winky, and Artist Fred Vanterra Are On Air!
from The Fierce Female Network · host Fierce Manson
I'm delighted that you've found me. Allow me to introduce myself—I'm Corky Wink, and I'm thrilled to announce the release of my latest single, 'Mississippi Man.' This heartfelt song is dedicated to my incredible grandfather, Eugene A. Wink, whose remarkable life story truly inspired me. Starting his journey in the Mississippi National Guard as a Private, my grandfather Eugene bravely served in both World War I and World War II. His unwavering dedication and valor led him to retire as a Colonel—a testament to his exceptional character and commitment. During his time with the National Guard, he also found fulfillment in working at the Post Office for many years. One of his favorite aspects of this job was the opportunity to ride postal trains, sorting mail at each stop. It brought him joy and added excitement to his days. Despite having only an 8th grade education upon retiring from the Guard and Post Office, my grandfather possessed an insatiable thirst for knowledge. Determined to further his education, he made the bold decision to return to school. Astonishingly, within just four years, he obtained both his Bachelor's and Master's Degrees—a testament to his unwavering drive and relentless pursuit of excellence. With his newfound academic achievements, my grandfather embarked on his final career as a history teacher at Gulfpark College, which has now evolved into the esteemed University of Southern Mississippi in Gulfport. His passion for imparting knowledge and his dedication to nurturing young minds left an indelible mark on the institution and countless students. My latest single, 'Mississippi Man,' is a heartfelt tribute to my grandfather Eugene A. Wink—a man whose remarkable journey of bravery, resilience, and intellectual pursuit continues to inspire me and so many others.
