Father's Day Message

On this special day I feel the need to post a special message urging those who like me have lost their father's to take that trip down memory lane.  It is with mixed emotion that I replay those special memories of moments with my own father.  While I miss him greatly I am forever grateful for the time I had.  With his guidance and mentoring (and sometimes tough lessons) I became the woman I am today.  He taught me perseverance in the face of adversity, creativity, and compassion along with many other critical life skills.  Little did I realize growing up his passion for opening the minds of future leaders would be a trait I inherited.  I feel blessed that I can now share that message with my own children and others.  Without a shadow of a doubt I know you are looking down upon us with a proud smile.  My special message to you dad, you were right we all have the power to make a difference.  Stay tuned, I am just getting warmed up!
