"I read your Okie Legacy and like what I find. With that in mind I provide the following. I thought there might be some of your readers who either knew this educator or may even have gone to some of his classes. This is taken from his Obituary and you might want to include in the next Okie Legacy.

[On Tuesday, August 2, 2005, Daniel Albert "Dan" Shorter died at an Oklahoma City Hospital at the age of 78. Dr. Dan Shorter, PhD, OSU in 1966.

I have known Dan all my life, as I was born and raised in Goltry also. Never a smoker, his death was caused by Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis. Thank You." -- James Bradley - Email: jbrad723@bluevalley.net   |  View or Add Comments (0 Comments)   |   Receive updates ( subscribers)  |   Unsubscribe
