“This city and this community have given me something that I never expected I would find. It’s now my job and my mission to make sure that other people get to feel the same way. Through the foundation, through the restaurant and through relationships-through conversation and good will I think we can do that. We should all want to be better and do better and I think that this foundation will be a good first step.”
