My name is Donnie McNeece and some of you know that I have been being mentored by Henry K. Lee . I just wanna express how grateful I am for the opportunity I have had to learn from such a wise old man. I’m honestly star struck by how far I have came along on this journey and I see no Signs of stopping anytime soon. Before I started being mentored by Henry I had not the slightest clue where I wanted to go in life, what I wanted to do, or what impact I wanted to have on this world. I had no goals or could even fathom looking to the future I was more worried on the here and now and making my situation better. Now my eyes have truly been opened to where they cannot be closed and I owe it all to Hank Lee. He has honestly changed my life and my outlook on life he has made himself a life long friend of mine and I absolutely thank god for meeting him.

Re: Mentoring: giving future generations hope and wisdom
Donnie, I'm glad things have turned out positive for both of you. Had you not been wanting to make the change, just think of how things would have turned out for Hank, had you not been the type person who "does what he says he's going to do". It's much easier to go the other way. Maybe the situation turned out the way it did because you and Hank are traveling a 2-way-street.

Re: Mentoring: giving future generations hope and wisdom
BINGO Bill!
I am very humbled by this as it is beyond good food for the soul!
I see so much of myself through Donnie now as I was when his age. I remember difficult times in my adolescence trying to find myself and purpose. We all needed some sort of an outside family influence for positive reenforcement.
Mentoring really gives you a sense of old age purpose!
For Ever Humbled,
Hank

Hank - "Wise old man..." Donnie certainly has your number.... Just kidding.
Donnie - You always had it in you to be the person you've become working with Hank.... he just showed you the way. The best way you can honor Hank is to pass it on when it is your turn. All the best in your future endeavors.

Re: Mentoring: giving future generations hope and wisdom
Donnie I finally got to see the inteview today. I would like to meet you and shake your hand one day. You sound like very grateful young man. I think you and Hank have something very special. I have had mentors and still do. The respect you show them returns in many ways. Years from now you will remember how to do these things Hank is teaching you and his knowledge will live on in you. You will keep some of the lost art that Hank posses alive well into the future. I hope you two continue having as much fun as it looks to me.
