Using Experience to Teach Others

Today I got a myspace post from my cousin Candi explaining about an incident with her friend, Craig. I never met Craig. I went to WJHS with his sister Emily, whom I have always remembered for her beautiful singing. I was interested to learn more about Craig. In doing so, I was extremely impressed. Not only did he over come the challenges he faced, but in doing so, helped countless people struggling to overcome similar obstacles. I admire the spirit and energy this amazing man had. It is awesome that he spent the time and effort to help educate people through his personal experiences. It takes a special kind of person to be so positive and proactive in helping others. My heart and prayers are with all his family and friends.
