One of the classes I didn't enjoy much while taking it has made a considerable impact on me as a leader. Nope. It wasn't biology, physics, English, geography, or any other standard high school.

We stayed in a bed-and-breakfast houseboat on the Dal Lake. I remember beauty, meeting merchants who sold saffron and wild honey. The other remarkable thing is that the local police had beards, which were not seen in the rest of India. I also saw locals carry their Kangers.

Here is the text of the eulogy:
Today I am honored and humbled to talk about my grandmother. She was a constant presence in my life. From the time I lived with her and her family (while my parents worked in the Middle East) to the time she spent some time with my wife Michelle and me.

I was simply exhausted!!! I took a afternoon nap with my 18 month daughter Patricia snuggled into me. After a quick meal of left overs, my wife Michelle, kids and myself decided to go for a walk. Rather than go for a walk in a State Park or in a Mall, we hit the nouveau downtown streets of Frederick, Maryland.
