It was terrific to hear from my friend Pat from my grade school basketball team.
"Joe, hope you had a great Holiday with your friends and family. I thought of your Dad the other day. He wasn't just a great coach (the best), he was a great man."
[Full disclosure: Coaches look especially great when they have a star point guard... like Pat.]
He devoted himself to making the world a better place than he found it. We can all strive for that. It's motivating to see the impact a teacher can have even after 25 years.
