Throwback Thursday to St. Patrick's Day 1981



In honor of St. Patrick's Day earlier this week, today's throwback photo is from the 1981 St. Patrick's Day Parade in Topeka.  On  that day, KDOT's own Hugh Rice carried the Irish Flag.  Rice, a native of Ireland, was known around the office as the "Fighting Irishman."  He worked in KDOT's Fiscal Management office for 35 years-- retiring in 1981 about two weeks after this parade.
