LEHIGHTON, Pa. The high school sports scene in Carbon County has lost one of its most familiar figures.
Bob Ford worked for the Lehighton Times News and was a fixture at high school sporting events for many years.
If you talk to anyone who knew Ford, they knew he could work a camera and capture not just photographs, but life in action.
Kyle Spotts is the athletic director for the Lehighton Area School District.
“He had a knack to capture moments of people he knew on the sidelines,” said Spotts.
