Kirby's Way: How Kirby and Caroline Risk Built Their Company on Kitchen-Table Values
Angie Klink
The late J. Kirby Risk II called himself ""a small-town businessman from the banks of the Wabash"". He was much more. The fastidious, dapper man from Lafayette, Indiana, exuded philanthropy and free enterprise. Kirby's Way captures the essence of this imitable gentleman, who with his wife of fifty-five years, Caroline, raised four children, gave time, money, and meals to strangers, refugees, Purdue University students, and their beloved community, while building from their kitchen table a successful Midwest corporation.
