The person did not show any impatience while waiting for her call to finish. When she was done, she asked if she could help him. He introduced himself as Lamar Hunt and wanted to know if he could borrow her phone book and telephone. The wife said of course, while thinking to herself, "Well, yeah, you own it".
She said he was in the office several more times and was always very gracious and the perfect gentleman.

That sounds a lot like what Marcus Allen said about him last night on the radio. He said there was one time where Lamar wasn't wearing his pass and one of the security guards at the door wouldn't let him pass because he didn't know who it was, and instead of pulling the, "Do you know who I am?" crap he just walked to another door.
Just sounds like possibly he could have been one of the nicest people ever.
