More on the book I'm reading about Bobby Kennedy Sr


Imagine my surprise when I read about a former teacher of mine was in the book. I had him for 8th grade art. He was also an assistant principal when I got to high school. His name is Dick Davis. He was an academic All American that played football for the University of Nebraska. I have his autograph on a photo of him scoring a touchdown in a bowl game.

The book is packed with info that makes for good reading. I highly recommend it.

Did anybody buy this book due to my post the earlier this week?

Please help keep this kicked.

Having been a Kansas University student at that time I have some strong memories of Nebraskans. But also having worked in Omaha and visited Lincoln, some good memories too.
