People have been asking a lot about the Nick and Dutch KC Memorial Forum
that’s coming up in the next couple of days, and really, I don’t have that
much information about it. There’s a website where you can learn all you need
to know. Or it’s a page on the metro website, or something. Please go find out
about it from there. I am not organizing it. I compiled a list of everyone
Nick and Dutch knew, or rather, everyone I knew that they knew. I left it up
to the mayors to have their teams reach out to these people. It’s true that,
out of everyone, I was one of the closest to them both, but they each had
their relationships outside of this whole thing. Dutch has lived on this
planet his whole life, and Nick met a surprisingly high number of people
during his short stint. You’ll remember his assistant at the jail, and his
parole officer. They knew him in their own way, and while I’m not sure if
they’ll be speaking at the Forum, I know that they were at least asked. I will
be one of the speakers, and I haven’t updated you on that either, because
there’s really nothing to say. You’ll hear it on Saturday along with everyone
else. If you live in the area, you may join us on the fairgrounds north of the
Missouri River, but we understand if you can’t make it. The weather report
says that it’s going to be blisteringly cold. They chose that spot, because it
can accommodate a lot of people, but just like the Chicago memorial, you can
stream it from the comfort of your home instead. It’s a BYOC (bring your own
chair) type of situation, which might deter a few people. Could you imagine if
the coordinators had to wrangle up enough chairs for everyone? They don’t even
have a headcount. I believe that, all they ask is, if you don’t have a
chair—or aren’t willing to sit on the cold ground—to head more towards the
back. I don’t think it will be all too long, though. There aren’t a million
speakers. Okay, I’ve told you more than I really wanted to take the time to
do. Again, if you want details, look it up on the webpage. Thanks.
