Dean Smith ensures all will have seat at table
Posted Apr 2, 2015
J.R. Reid celebrated his 47th birthday Tuesday by taking his $200 check and gathering his family and friends at Aberdeen Barn, a Virginia Beach steakhouse. Dean Smith, Reid said, loved more than any steakhouse fare a plate of Osso Buco. Yet for Tuesday’s purposes, something far less extravagant would do. Because there is nothing simpler than a fond memory, and nothing more precious than thinking of another human being.
