Long story short..... I was Head Golf Coach at a university and was taking grad-school classes. I needed info for a presentation I was doing for a class about fundraising and marketing. I wanted to question someone from a major university and called him and left a voicemail. He called back and invited me to sit with him at his office. We spent 2 hrs together. He not only answered every question, he actually steered me in different directions that were more advantageous. He was genuinely interested in what I was doing and why. Needless to say, I was a fan of his from that day forward. Sad to see him pass.
