Description

[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] ON APRIL 27, 2007, Kurt Vonnegut was scheduled to speak in Indianapolis as part of the city-proclaimed Year of Vonnegut (he was born and raised in Indianapolis where his family had long-established roots). I was to attend this event to provide coverage for the Times of Northwest Indiana and Shore magazine. On February 28, in what was to be one of his last interviews, I spoke by phone with Vonnegut, who was home in New York. We didn't talk for long because he wasn't well, but we discussed memories of family vacations, his ancestors and what it means to be a family. Sadly, on April 11, 2007, Vonnegut died. A member of our family was gone, a true American, and one hell of a writer.
