The community, the city that I live in, we're trying to clean the community up, to bring it up, ... We can't tolerate anybody that's going to bring it down so, in my opinion, these guys needed to go.

We are constantly being put to the test by trying circumstances and difficult people and problems not necessarily of our own making.

That's what made the difference to me. It's become more and more of a community event.

It seemed to me that professional associations might be a substitute for community associations in people's lives, and that is, in fact, what I found. Younger people are working harder, are less involved in their neighborhoods, and are more likely to be involved in workplace communities, most notably professional and trade associations.

They came up and cleaned up the entire area around the Uncle Sam grave site. The community really was amazingly generous. We were overwhelmed with their generosity.

I think there are a lot of good-hearted people in our community who can lend a helping hand to those people. I would definitely open my home to those who needed somewhere to stay,
