This book tells us that we dont have to look that far to find heroes and inspirations. Just because some make headlines and serve in high places doesnt necessarily make them good people. Look around, as I have, to see why you are as you are. Im proud to be from the grass roots of America. From people who worked in the dirt in an effort not only to make the world a better place but also to make better lives for their children. Struggle was part of life and affected most families, but it also built character and produced individuals who are worthy of remembering and celebrating with a written remembrance.
