The first step to living (King's dream) is that we can come together and honor it.

This event is not an African American event. This county, we're finally at a point where we can honor the dream.

There we'll have a 45-minute program, and we'll honor the oldest living veteran in Lee County. We'll give him an appropriate gift and acknowledge his service.

It's a great honor. I feel very fortunate as there are tons of deserving candidates that never receive an award like this.

It's part of our code of honor.

No amount if ability is of the slightest avail without honor.
