Thursday evening at a banquet at the German Cub on VT campus in Blacksburg I received the NRV Leading Lights Award. For the full story go to Roanoke Times Current at:
www.roanoke.com/news/nrv/community/wb/242988 I'm very honored to receive this award.
The banquet was excellent. The German Club is impressive as a building and all the speakers were marvelous. Paul Torgersen, the former President of Tech, told an hysterically funny story of how he was mistakenly credited for keeping Coach Beamer from leaving. Clearly, once the media get a hold of a concept it becomes truth whether it is or not. He has given up trying to change "history" and now graciously accept thanks. Mr.Pearson loved the crab cakes.
