On Wednesday, I posted a You Should Meet item about retired English professor Joe Plut, who was having a 'reading room' dedicated in his honor that night.
Nancy Waller, who had nominated Joe, sends along this message today:
It was a nice gathering, quite lovely, with many of his friends gathered. Steve and I think there were at least 70 there, amazing... and just a guess since it was standing room only.
Joe wore the tux from his play. He was beaming and enjoying every hug he got that night.
He had a print out of your blog, and talked about it quite a bit. He kept mentioning you and the 3 hour conversation all night long.
Thanks, Bob.
Nancy sent along these photographs. My favorite is this table of important items and photographs. You can probably figure out why.
