for her extraordinary efforts in contacting Ms. Zirin to obtain permission to include "Kansas" here, and for scanning and transcribing the poem and the obituary of Mr. Fleming.

Thanks also to Harold and Wayne Berg and Lyle Taylor, for permission to use their photographs (in the first photograph, of two men, Harold is on the right and Lyle is on the left; the second photograph is of Wayne), and to Dick Taylor, for contributing the photograph of the Rock Creek Crossing in Kansas.

And we gratefully acknowledge the Denver Post for their permission to present the biographical sketch in Mr. Fleming's obituary.
