VERY, VERY SAD TO LOSE OUR CHEER LEADER AND OUR FRIEND.  SHE WAS MY FIRST AND ONLY GIRL FRIEND IN HIGH SCHOOL.   MANY REGRETS NOW ON NOT ATTENDING THE REUNIONS AND HAVING A CHANCE TO TALK TO HER THROUGH THE YEARS.  LIFE AND YEARS ARE PASSING TOO QUICKLY.

JoAnn and Jack were good friends while I was attending MC Jr. College. Jack hired me at KRIB when he as an announcer and in management there. JoAnn and I were friends in HS. Bill Wright and I were ushers at their wedding. Many times as I passed through Kansas City I thought of them. It was always in the middle of the night so I could not call or visit them. I always planned to visit them another day.
