Nice to see a couple of my long-time friends from the K.C. area featured in
\na write-up<\/a>
\nfrom alma mater’s sports information office. The memories A. recounts in this
\nstory are very familiar; for several months about ten years ago he and I met
\nevery couple of weeks for lunch at the Kabob House on Wornall Ave. to catch up
\nabout a wide variety of things, including his monthly letter to members of the
\nnational antique dealers association he presided over at the time. Fine visits.
\nI met him and got to know his family after I was given an award named for his
\nlate wife, C. <\/p>\n

My good friend, E., also appears in the photo. In the article, A. recounts
\nsome of the conditions surrounding the men’s soccer program in the 1960s, and E.
\nis the current men’s soccer coach. He played futbol at alma mater at the
\nsame I was an undergraduate in the early 90s, he stood in my and D.’s wedding
\nparty in ’03, and so on. When I miss living in Kansas City, these guys are
\nhigh among the leading reasons why.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
