IT WOULD make a nice Valentine’s Day surprise if someone around Madison knows whatever happened to Robert Earl Kinyon, who grew up in the area and attended UW-Madison in the 1940s, after serving in the Marines.
One person who would like to know is Alice Catherine Parrish, 83, who lives in Florida. Last November, Parrish got a letter from Kinyon, postmarked from Madison. The thing is, the letter was postmarked Feb. 17, 1947.
