Tell us one thing you hope people say about you.

Frankly I would like to say that other people’s opinions tend to vary about me. The people who know me love me and accept me for the person that I am. There are people whose opinions are negative. The reason for this is because they never had given me a chance to really get to know me.

Tell us about your first day at something

Tell us about your first day at something — school, work, as a parent, etc.

On Monday March 29, 1993, this was my first day working at the Jerusalem Outreach Center in Toledo, Ohio.  My first day was very stressful because I was working with troubled kids and their parents.  It was not that bad, but I stayed busy at the job.  I was a Youth Counselor for three years.  From 1993-1996, I helped kids who were Court Ordered by the Lucas County Juvenile Court System.  The Judge who Court Ordered the kids to treatment was Judge Ray.  My Supervisor’s name was Dr. H.M. Crenshaw and he was the Executive Director of the Jerusalem Outreach Center located on 400 Dorr Street Toledo, Ohio 43602.  I really had a lot of fun working with the kids.  I loved my job and the Supervisor at the job, and this includes the Agency Staff and co workers.  I was responsible for counseling sessions with kids on a daily basis.

What is something others do that sparks your admiration?

If one of my friends or family members get a job and or promotion, I am very happy for them. If someone that I know graduated from high school or college, I am very happy for them. And finally, if someone gets baptized at Church, this person becomes my brother or sister in Christ Jesus. If someone that I know gets married, the couple becomes a Union.

What could you do less of?

What could you do less of?

I want to inform all of you that I should not be staying home from Church. I do understand that I have Diabetes Full Blown Type 2 and Alzheimer’s right now. I need to attend Church rather than staying home. I also need to start attending my AA meetings on a daily basis because I am a grateful recovering alcoholic
