"I personally feel life was simpler back then....families seemed to have a closer bond, friendships were "for life", promises were kept, handshakes had
meaning, respect for others and integrity was abundant, everyone stood with their hand over their heart for our National Anthem, and we bowed our
heads, closed our eyes to pray to God anywhere we wanted."
