Eastern NE KS | Mr Larson was one of my vo-ag advisors and FFA 'here by the owl' leader. He also helped me through a rough patch while in I was in high school. He was a good man with a gentle but firm conviction. His success with Hereford cattle demonstrates what perseverance can attain even on a modest scale.
