Leroy Sievers’s public persona as reflected in his blog (NPR) and previously in his newsletter (Nightline)… was not all that different from who he was as a boy. My fondest memory of Leroy is watching him react and cring when his sister would refer to him by a pet family name… “baby Leroy.” He was the youngest of four with three older – and I am told – ‘wiser’ sisters.
Leroy Sievers was born in 1955 in this remarkable family… most remarkable in producing my wife Laura.
Here are a couple pictures from some long gone days that I hope will make you smile:
I seem to remember that Leroy ( about age 25) pretending to not remember what kind of beverage I was serving him.
Leroy, Kristin and Laura each studying the other.
There is never enough time….. Goodbye, Leroy
