I love this time of year with the jingle bells and corny holiday movies. Christmas will soon be here and I feel that sweet, sweet pureness of spirit.

I’m honored! I’m happy! I don’t know what to say, except “Thank you, Sherri, from the bottom of my heart for this ‘Blog Of The Year 2013 Award’.”

Thank you, Dr. Rex, for posting this beautiful tribute to a special man. I pray he will always be remembered for the life he lived, what he stood for and how he accomplished it.

May You Rest in Peace, “Madiba” — God Bless You!
