Why did you join Rotary and why have you stayed?
The motto for rotary is about the same as my life goals " Service above Self". Now I know what the Lord put me on this earth to do.
 
What is your favorite Rotary experience?
Going to different club or district events and sitting next to people who are major movers and shakers in their day jobs and who come to Rotary to roll up their sleeves and do some good. You can't help but think that if this is worth their time, it is certainly worth my time.

I like John Grisham books and mostly read community publications and newspapers.

My bucket list is long, more travel, maybe around the world and Dubai.
