“Successful people almost never forget their roots. They always look back and offer a helping hand to those who follow them. That is why we chose to endow the library. [The Ludden Library at Laramie County Community College, Wyoming] A library is a refuge for everyone – young and old, poor and privileged, educated and uneducated – to go relax, to go and seek knowledge, truth, understanding and wisdom. May all who enter these hollowed halls find joy and happiness, knowledge and wisdom, and an everlasting and insatiable thirst to serve others.”
Randy Ludden – retired energy trader and executive, at the Ludden Library rededication ceremony
