My father was a great example of a strong and good man and Christian man, and my mother taught all my six sisters how to be young ladies and mothers and how to take care of your family. And so I think they were - they still are - great examples for all of us to their kids and to the world, too. ↗

More and more, when I single out the person out who inspired me most, I go back to my grandfather. ↗
