My cousins and some good Samaritans have been working on getting more exposure for Grandpa's story in the Oklahoma media. I had contacted several Oklahoma media outlets when we first started searching for Grandpa, but I received little response. Thankfully, their efforts have proven much more effective than mine and the story is starting to pop up here and there.
This story ran on the front page of the Enid, OK newspaper. The print article included his photo, but this online article does not: http://www.enidnews.com/localnews/local_story_229005058.html
I've also heard from family that lives in Ponca City that a story and photo ran in the Friday, Aug 15th edition of the Ponca City News, but I can't find an article online. Here is the link to Ponca City News: http://www.poncacitynews.com/
There is also a possibility that KFOR Channel 4 in Oklahoma City will run a story about Grandpa, but I haven't seen anything about him show up on their web site yet. Here is the link to their main page: http://www.kfor.com/
Here are some other online stories and references I've found about Grandpa:

Lastly, but definitely not least, Prairie Chicken has kindly added a permanent link on the sidebar of her blog. Thank you, my friend: http://prairiechicken.blogspot.com/
