Many photos were taken on the afternoon of Sunday, April 22, 2018 at the store at 705 Y St. (where Kelly lived when we first met and which we later purchased) prior to the awards banquet. I asked everyone to wear black, red, white, or cream.
The photos in this journal are a combination of images taken that weekend, along with photos of these friends from our past days together. Additional photos in this journal were taken by Jody Shields on Sunday April 22, 2018.
On some of the last pages of the journal, there are photos from the workshop done with UNL students in the art department.
In the end, this is a gratitude journal, for the honor and recognition of the Alumni Achievement Award, but also for the bounty of professional and personal riches that grew from my relationships in Nebraska and at the University.
