Honored to have had these great people walk the earth, doing what came naturally to them, to make this world a better place. I am also honored to have been able to shake the hand of and thank Rosa Parks for her courage! I can only hope that by doing what comes naturally to me, I can leave a legacy of making a difference…

John, once again, I’m so impressed by your community’s many different activities that serve to educate and entertain the general public. From holiday celebrations, art shows, family activities and social awareness programs, your town certainly seems focused on its citizens in many positive ways.
The placards of historical Black Americans on the trail is very done. By the way, Frederick Douglas spent much of his life here in Rochester, NY and is buried at Mount Hope Cemetery, just s few minutes from my neighborhood. Interestingly, Susan B Anthony is also interred there and the main bridge in downtown Rochester is named after both of them. The Rochester airport is named in honor of Douglas and there are 13 statues of him arrayed throughout the city.
Probably more info than you wanted to know, John 🤓. Have a great day!
