Cool to hear about your involvement with Angel Tree. I got to do a ride-along to deliver some angel tree gifts when I was in college. Something I'll never forget. It was in the Central District and one of the deliveries was to an African American (which I'm not) family of two boys whose dad was incarcerated. We knocked and the mother yelled for us to come in. As soon as we opened the door the youngest boy of about 4 ran across the room to me with his arms open. Even though we were bringing them wrapped Christmas gifts, he stayed in my arms until we left. Those of you who are fathers or surrogate fathers, try to never doubt the value and impact of your presence or embrace. Now back to trucks...
