ed, I got a lovely wife that's very intelligent, very giving, very loving, and she loves it, my wife loves Atlanta, and she puts her money where he love is. She supports all the organizations all over Atlanta. She's a big music fan. She's given lots of funds to the Steinwick society and the ___Mozart society, the Atlanta Symphony, the Children's Theatre. My wife and I both love Atlanta dearly and we do all we can to volunteer with the Atlanta Olympics in 1996 and we welcomed the world and I just have the most happy and…. I feel so sorry for the people who say I'm leaving Atlanta. I don't want to be here, they've missed out on the experience of a lifetime, the most exciting and most thrilling time to be in Atlanta, and I got to show people from all over the world around Atlanta, and I was responsible for a British group, the handicapped people, I had to escort, take them around different places, and it was just a wonderful experience. A lot of times, you think you'll have a bad experience, you want to get out of town, you miss out on a wonderful experience, it's the most marvelous time that Atlanta ever experienced. Its just been a wonderful time, I've been very blessed in my life, extremely blessed beyond anything that I can ever imagine. God has been real good to me. I have a nice home, and I grew up during the depression years with pants made out of flowers cut up from my sister's dresses, and I wore ________ shirts made out Capicola flower sacks, we must have been pretty desperate, it was that way for years and years, and it was World War II when we came out of this. If anybody ever told me that I would be living in a lovely home like I live today, that I would have had the opportunity to travel the world, I've been to China, and I've been to the Holy Land, and I've been all over Europe, and I've had all these wonderful… I feel so privileged. And this wife I've got, I keep going back to my wife, I got this wonderful girl, far beyond anything she could have married much better. I was a _________ I didn't have any money, all I had I did love her, and I was honest with her. I told her I said I can't really offer you a great deal, I love you and I'll be a good husband while I can't offer you a lot. So she knew up front what she was getting into, but we've been married 43 years and we have a happy marriage, and she's just a wonderful person, and I'm grateful for my home and my friends and that I can live in this wonderful country. This has been a magnificent interview and for you to take the time to share your story has made a wonderful afternoon for me, so thank you very much. Well, I ask your forgiveness for…. COUNTER 237
