Norma Wilson wrote a sympathy message

“Norma Wilson wrote a sympathy message “To the family of Ross King, I admired Ross King's work for South Dakota Public Radio, and I thought of him as a friend. He made me feel like he appreciated my work and my activism. I did not know until I read his obituary that he had once taught English. That was something we had in common. I wondered why I had not seen him in several years and did not realize that he had moved to Sioux Falls. Carol, I send my sympathy. He was very kind and thoughtful.”
