I enjoy teaching and spending time with people. It’s been fun teaching my own son how to drive and recently he had a chance to drive on a dark rural road at night. I know many people would refuse that type of drive, but he actually asked to drive as we were heading off to…

I was always raised in such a way as to help others in need. I’ve been raising my kids to have the same beliefs. I firmly believe that if we help others, they’ll help others and the chain continues. It may not always continue, but I am an optimist and do believe some people continue…
