Another Forrest Gump Adventure: Getting to Tell My Story

Like Forrest Gump, who somehow  gets involves in events not of his choosing: 

     I was just standing around when Joey M , Ex Dir of Village on  the Green ( my CCRC) asked  if I would not mind being interviewed by LeadingAGE Southeast Senior Living for their  Winter edition magazine. Seeing this as chance to get in some good words in for my  CCRC.,The Wild Weasels, our Brede-Wilkins Scholarship Program and the Air Warrior Courage Foundation, I agreed.

     Yes, it may be my story, but it is really about all the great organizations that I have been priviledged to associate with.
