There was a great friendship there, and I don't think color was an issue.

The smaller the circle, the greater the loyalty.

When Covert became a community, you had different people coming in, and, today you have different people coming in. History's really repeating itself right now.

They grew up with each other. They just think (getting along and living as friends) is normal. It's what they've always known.

We're just a little town that did things that were unheard of at the time.

To make real friends you have to put yourself out there. Sometimes people will let you down, but you can't let that stop you. If you get hurt, you just pick yourself up, dust off your feelings, and try again.
