Our company brought in an outside consultant who interviewed everyone. Later he told me, “Everyone I talked to about you gave me an impression of warmth and light.”

Last week I was at a VFW club in northern Minnesota; guys were playing music. One was 96. They did this song, and then the guy said he was a dockworker and made minor repairs to the EF the day it went out. He said when they got the news they all went back to work. "I lost a lot of friends that day."
