Plus it provides a stage where we see people overcome tremendous odds because of their dedication; focus; belief in themselves; hardwork; and never giving up. It gives all of us hope, and reminds us how good we can be if we put our minds to it. Sam Mills was one of those reminders.

Thanks.
Well said, ramhard. Rest in peace Sam...well done!
