I had the privilege to drive Senator Abourezk in the 1974 or 75 Dakota Days Parade. The Senator stopped by our Lamda Chi Alpha fraternity to talk to us and offer his support.
What an inspirational time in my life.
Thank You for representing South Dakota in my lifetime and your legacy to be remembered by your humble constituent,
