I am sorry I did not get back faster, we lost one of our dogs. He started having seizures around 5AM and did not stop until around 8AM when the first damned vet said they would not be in to take a call for another 30 minutes or so. He died and it took all day to get someone out here to pick him up for cremation, he was about 85 pounds so we were not able to do that. Whew, what an awful day.

I finally looked at the paper and found this article about Robby and Kansas today. I am thinking you might not be able to get it but give it a try. Not sure how to get it to you, I don't know if I can snip it or screen shot it but I think you would like it.

I have not spent much time in Leavenworth but I did think it was nice. It is pretty, at least where I was and the entire area around it is beautiful. We found a couple of nice places to eat too. It certainly is pretty conservative there but even the more liberal areas are pretty conservative. Home IS home that is absolutely correct. "There's no place like home. There's no place like home."

I play clarinet. I just a week ago retired from the Topeka Symphony after somewhere between 35 and 40 years. Health issues got in the way of continuing. I was already sad about that then my dog, he was my heart and soul. One special guy, rescued with a seizure disorder. We had him for a year and a half and he never left my side.

Let me know if you cannot get the article. I would guess it would be reprinted somewhere else being the home town paper for the band.

EDIT because I forgot the link! https://www.cjonline.com/story/news/2021/07/20/robby-steinhardt-remembered-voice-progressive-rock-band-kansas-kerry-livgren-topeka/8024574002/?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=Social&utm_campaign=gh-topekacj-main&fbclid=IwAR16uGbEtSB9YmF1zSd6ioiqOOvmIxsvF75qrn8RkgYUSfCV4AsN6TBFZ_4
