Sam Funk, Holcomb senior, was raised on a farm that has been in his family for four generations. Funk is finishing up his fourth year at the University of Kansas and hopes to become an optometrist someday. Funk said his family has been very conscious about saving water and growing mostly crops that don't need to be watered, like wheat, sorghum and hay. Funk balances his free time between interning for an optometrist and helping out back home at the farm.
