76. How very cool is that, former NE neighbor!

Mar 20

When we lived in Lincoln (1994-2000), we hosted a cocktail reception at our home in 2000 prior to a Jefferson Jackson dinner that year, where former Senator ( and former Governor)Kerrey attended, along with Ben Nelson who was running for-- and would win--the Senate, and JFK' s speechwriter, Ted Sorensen. That was a kick, but I've never been as close as you were to the power behind the Office of the President!

Thank you for all you do, Omaha Steve!
