The Passing of Steve Drake

Chuck Zimmerman

Steve DrakeIt was with a great deal of sadness that I learned of the passing of Steve Drake. I considered him a good friend and someone I could easily talk to any time. He was always happy to offer ideas and suggestions. I’m going to miss him as so many people in the agricultural marketing business will. This is one of my photos of Steve from the Ag Media Summit in 2010.

You can learn more about Steve in a post on AgriMarketing.com which includes a tribute written by Den Gardner, Agricultural Relations Council senior consultant.

I had the opportunity to interview Steve on several occasions over the years. Here’s one from my ZimmCast podcast back in 2010 when he talked about his company, Drake & Company.
