I met LC in 1983 when I was hired as secretary to the director of the fairgrounds/Expo Square and learned, to my dismay, that I would be coordinating the activities of a group of business professionals known as the Ringmasters, since I knew very little about animal husbandry. During preparations for my first Junior Livestock Auction, and over the ensuing 18 years, LC and a couple of his buddies, Frank Sanders and Everett Salley, taught me the difference between bulls and steers, hogs and barrows, sheep and wethers, and many other aspects of the livestock industry. All three were gentlemen of the highest caliber and dear to my heart. My loving condolences to Teresa, Patricia and Marquitta and their families on their loss.
