Or are people just gonna say, he was a good dude? That's what I'm thinking about. That's what I try to think about. I want to get up every day and make myself valuable.I wanna make myself valuable first of all to the Lord Jesus Christ as a spokesman and I walk in his feet and I show the light to anyone that'll look. That's number one. Number two, I wanna be valuable to my community. when I'm gone I want people to say, Man, we're sure gonna take a hit in this area, or man, he sure did volunteer a lot orMan, he well he's gonna be missed, you know. You know, there's you know, been some people die like Lindsey Graham, for instance, regardless of your side of the aisle you fall on. He was working in Ukraine, he was working on Iran, and he was working, you know, to against the Russians to try to get these deals done. He had all these irons in the fire. AndYou know, there's a big hole now that he's gone. You know. so I think about somebody like that, you know, in our in your community. Think about somebody that goes to your church that just does everything. Or somebody that you just is a solid rock that you lean on all the time. Somebody that's dependable. That's what we're trying to be. That's what I want to be. That's what we all need to try to be.]
