to appreciate the beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch Or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!โ€โ€•ย Ralph Waldo Emerson.

I concluded my welcome remarks by mentioning why I think Wally Hopp has been truly successful:."To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends โ€ฆ.
