I cold called him one day and he dropped what he was doing and had a nice chat with me. He told me how he came to love VA Tech. His office walls were maroon above the chair railing and burnt orange under it around the room. He was a good sport as his friend's office next door was painted Dark Blue and Orange to honor UVA. RIP Mr. Hokie.
