Both of you are fortunate that you need not look beyond our family for role models; I can think of no better examples of women of power than your grandmother, mother, and aunt. I am so proud you’ve chosen to begin your professional lives as teachers, following in Gramma’s footsteps. However, Mom displayed so many other qualities worthy of emulation: selfless dedication to family and business; unwavering support to Poppa as a true partner in working to realize their shared dreams; and a relentless drive to uplift the less fortunate.
