Such an honor to receive this news today. I still can not fill my mentor, friend, and last year's recipient, the late Pastor Joseph Karge's shoes. Hope he and a lot of others are smiling down. Never thought that from the first wedding (. Valerie Murphy Leach Dan Leach ) I did that it would lead to this. Thanks to all that supported and believed enough in me to vote me in to receive this award. God bless you all.
