Five Legends Inducted Into Hall of Honor | Lawrence News

Five legendary Lawrence Lions alumni are being honored this year with induction into the Hall of Honor — each a trailblazer in their field, from U.S. Circuit Judge John Nalbandian to the late Dr. Quentin Rials, whose student-centered leadership still echoes through Lawrence High. Kim Murphree brought the community together with Lawrence’s first Veterans Day Parade in decades, while Jim “Punkin” O’Connell devoted nearly 30 years to student athletes and public service. G. Craig Weinaug shaped local government and mentored future leaders, and all five — including Rials, honored posthumously — embody the enduring spirit of excellence and service that defines the Lawrence Lions legacy.
