Legacy Magazine
August 2025

It’s August. The doldrums, the backstretch, the last gasp of summer.
It’s the time of “Out of Office” notices and bagging grass clippings, and of squeezing in a few more summer cookouts. August is a time for the small stuff.
But not here! Because this August, Legacy Magazine is going Big-Game hunting. What is your Big Game? Are you really playing it? Some of the answers you sent are within.
In addition, we proudly debut Legacy Magazine’s new Funny Pages. Three cartoonists-in-residence have inked their inaugural panels for your enjoyment, with more to come every issue.
After that, a great man muses upon brotherhood – in verse. Another renders sage advice about holding teams together – to which our regular columnist replies, “No problem: you’ll never break up Team We.”
Finally, and more solemnly, we begin the process of saying goodbye to an old and very dear friend.
Olaf Krop, a giant among brothers, is now resting in peace somewhere. Well, more likely he’s got the jazz turned up high while busily enrolling a bunch of the other men who’ve left us in the cause of something powerful.
We who remain are left here, missing him. But at the least, some of his last – and wisest – words, have been preserved in our pages by a man who knew him long and well.
The doldrums? The last gasp of summer? Hardly. Not this August. Read on!
