By chance earlier this year, my MWC editor, Mike Wittmann, asked if I could interview San Jose State’s sports information director. I’ve had numerous conversations with the late Lawrence Fan over the last few years and he’s assisted me with various articles and interviews, as he’s done for so, so many...and then some.
It was always on the back of my mind to interview Lawrence and I’m certainly lucky the “forces” finally got me to do it just a week before his sudden passing on February 21st.
I knew right off speaking with Lawrence would not be an interview, but an open conversation, because Lawrence was someone you had to let riff and you go with it.
