MULVANE, Kan. (AP) _
Pastor Dane Massey remembered a story of Powers riding a
motorcycle into Mulvane wearing boxers. He also talked about how
Powers would wear multicolored sneakers on the wrong feet.
Powers, a former Mulvane school district band teacher, died
Tuesday after suffering a massive stroke. He was 73.
Rep. Dale Swenson, a Republican from Wichita, eulogized Powers
as a jokester who was also a serious and effective representative.
