When Bud Jordahl was inducted into the Wisconsin Conservation Hall of Fame in 2005, a fellow member of the 1000 Friends of Wisconsin board, Steve Born, was asked to review the accomplishments of the former director of the agency that led to the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources.
Born did not have to wax poetic or pad the introduction of Jordahl, who has died in his 84th year. The basic details were more than sufficient to impress.
