Marion Alpheus Boggs Jr (1925-2021):
On December 19, Marion Alpheus ("Al") Boggs Jr passed away.  Born in Arkansas, he was sent to Rice at the onset of WWII and earned a BS in Mechanical Engineering in 1946.  After earning a MBA from Harvard in 1949, he built up the Lynn Elliott Company of Kansas City, his own sales engineering company, where he worked until the age of 83.  He will be "remembered for his depth of character and for his thirst for knowledge" plus he was active in the community and his church.  He is predeceased by, among others, his wife Jackie (they were married for over 60 years).  Click here for The Kansas City Star obituary.
