Hi,
Over the past few weeks so many of you have expressed your condolences on the passing of my dad, Jim Klobuchar. I can't thank you enough for your kind words.
Through his more than 8400 columns, my dad told stories of the “heroes among us” -- ordinary people doing extraordinary things. He is now laid to rest among so many heroes at Ft. Snelling National Cemetery.
Even to the end, he was still singing songs, sharing his love of words and the world with those around him and telling incredible stories to all who visited. He loved Minnesota. He loved journalism. He loved sports and adventure. And we loved him.
Your condolences and memories mean a lot to me,
Amy
P.S. Some of you have asked about a memorial. The University of Minnesota has set up a scholarship in my dad’s name to help the next generation of journalists. We ask that any memorials be directed to his scholarship fund -- if you would like to give a memorial gift, you can do so here [[link removed]] .
