"People don't forget about this place. It becomes a part of their life forever."

Those words were written by Dr. Bob Frederick in a column posthumously published today in the Lawrence Journal-World. They were written by Frederick about the University of Kansas.

Frederick, of course, died this past week from injuries suffered in a bicycle accident in Lawrence. He was 69. The long-time Athletics Director and faculty member at KU leaves a legacy of caring, humility and genuineness which touched the lives of many.

He will be missed. And, his life is indeed a part of the University of Kansas forever.

Frederick's memorial service is today at the Lied Center in Lawrence.
