Pay It Forward-Lessons in Life

I have attached the two separate links (Intro & Article) to the Peoria Journal Star article that Jack Brimeyer has been working on for some time now. Jack & his wife Liz have been dear friends of Gina & I for many, many years. They have been with us for the whole ride over the past five years, as well as all of my other fiends and supporters.

Thank you to all who have helped, prayed, supported, assisted, and for many of my friends, who just listened to me. Gina and I have grown stronger in love and our marriage, (if that was possible). I realize that, per my many mentors in life that the one core value they all shared, as do I, is that it is your responsibility to pay it forward, with no expectation of return, sometimes not even a thank-you. It is not your choice, it is your duty & responsibility.
