    I just finished watching the video. It is so moving. I saw him on Oprah when he originally came on. It puts all the little complaints in our daily lives into perspective. Thanks for putting it on the site and thank you for all your hard work. I look forward to seeing everyone on the 16th. Wendy

  2. Wendy you are just the best and I plan to have some fun Tuesday!
