“What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.” Jane Goodall When George Brown thought about how he could help the students in Forney ISD, he realized it was posthigh school aid from others that had helped him achieve his success. His concept for the Forney Education Foundation was to provide scholarships for graduating seniors to help them through all four years of college. And for a number of years as the Foundation was growing, this was the path that was used to help all graduating seniors in Forney. However, in 2007, the Board of Directors realized that the Foundation wasn’t reaching and helping nearly enough students and so began the teacherrequested grant program.

Good morning from my bed. It is December 26th. I regret nothing. Seriously, show me a mom or a grandmother who doesn’t need to take to the bed like a fine Victorian lady the day after Christmas and I will show you… nothing! Such a creature doesn’t exist. We have bent to the break, twisted like pretzels, and fed many with Herculean efforts only bestowed upon us by Jesus Himself. Our feet hurt and we have a pinchy thing going on in between our shoulder blades. Let us rest. I was all set to pen you a yarn to usher in the new year, but as I scrolled through social media for the first time in days, your beautiful photos of family gatherings and smiles made me emotional. I wound up listening to, of all things, my favorite Christmas carol, O Holy Night. I thought, perhaps, we could chat about that instead, because if you don’t know this story… Actually, that incomplete sentence stands alone. I am too tired to do anything to you other than tell it like it is.
