He shared that, “Two generations ago, my grandfather swept the floor of the bookstore at William & Mary, posting the accomplishments of his children and grandchildren on the bulletin board inside of the store when we would send updates to him. Today, I have the privilege of sending students there to study, standing on his giant shoulders and seeing the Promised Land that he dreamed of for us.”
