Kelli Cook and Ken have known each other for a number of years through community volunteering. Ironically, Kelli worked as a bookkeeper for a friend of Ken’s that shared an office in the Schaefer building. We lured Kelli to a third-floor phone room to explain that we like to introduce our new hires with a casual […]
A Drive Into the Gap Kevin Guilfoile This book is my style. It’s a short, easy read that is well designed. It’s also about baseball connecting a father and son. So, right up my alley. The book is a great collection of stories that reference Kevin Guilfoile’s memories growing up in Pittsburg in the 1970’s. He […]
Barneys New York Magazine Holiday Issue I brought a combination of books and magazines, since I read a myriad of both on a regular basis. I try to make time for reading every day, though sometimes a lack of time prevents that. Anyone that knows me at all knows that I love fashion and I love […]

The next […]

Lights need to be kept on and our families provided for, but we make a great effort to do work that impacts the community in a significant way. This year, we had the opportunity to partner with a non-profit […]
Two years ago we reintroduced a 100-year-old cheer back into popularity among the TCU faithful and the Fort Worth community alike. This cheer has soaked into the collective TCU community and is now a highlight of the TCU fan experience. It’s a part of student orientation, a staple across social media and tailgate talk, and […]
In an age where everything is digital and your family and friends are a FaceTime away, writing a letter by hand and sending it through the mail is a lost art. There is something very personal about receiving a note that’s both thoughtful and handmade. We wanted to encourage our digital world to slow down […]
