As a public servant the greatest accomplishment is helping others and hearing the words "thank you" from the citizens I work for.

I live in Walnut Bend in Algiers.  My neighborhood is very family oriented, quiet with lots of birds, trees and squirrels surrounded by nature.  

Any random facts you could share with us?

A line from one of Dr. Martin L. King's favorite songs says, "If I can help somebody as I pass along, If I can cheer somebody with a word or song, If I can show somebody he is traveling wrong, then my living will not be in vain."  the Bible says, "For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God whom they have not seen."
