You are awesome, Jeannie. Watching you work so hard to complete your classes was so inspiring to me. I will be proud of you when you walk across that stage to get your diploma. What a wonderful accomplishment. Phil and I were so fortunate to have become friends with you and Bob while we lived in Alabama. You helped me learn the real story about the civil rights movement in the south. Thank you for delaying your own education in pursuit of such an important social justice issue that eventually gave rights to persons with disabilities like my husband Phil. We will always be grateful. We miss you both so much. Again, congratulations on reaching your dream!
