Pat—Beautiful send off to a remarkable Iowan. I first met Curley in 1964 when he was running for governor. I was the young editor of the Harlan Newspapers and spent a delightful afternoon as he blitzed Harlan asking residents for their votes. He may have been the underdog against incumbent Harold Hughes but you wouldn’t have known it as he raced door to door while I tried to keep up with my camera. Thanks, Pat.
Thanks Richard. I was in J-school at ISU with one of the Mores brothers (Alan) from Harlan and their dad came and talked to one of our reporting classes in 1977-78; Jim Schwartz had just returnred to the classroom after years as department head and was our prof. Pretty awesome class; he really lined up some big hitters for us.

A beautiful testimony!
What a beautiful tribute, Pat! My dad would have loved reading this and remembering Curly Hultman. —Holly Hovelson Smith
