My grandfather is dead.  He died in Garden City Kansas several years ago.  When he died, they talked about him on the radio because for something like 40 years he did a weekly radio show.  He was well known and respected by the Kansas farming and agriculture community.  He worked with the universities and the farmers to improve yields and farming techniques.

He is mentioned in Capote’s book.  He was one of a group of people who went and cleaned the house after the killings.
