In Dave Dedrick’s memory, the South Dakota State Historical Society has created a temporary exhibit in the Cultural Heritage Center in Pierre. The exhibit is located at the museum gallery entrance.

Thanks for the heads up. I probably won't get there to see it, but would like to. I was at the opening of the center, and thought it was great. George Mickelson gave a pretty darned good speech.
