I had very supportive parents that made the way for me, even at a time when there were very few women - no women, really; maybe two or three women - and very few, fewer than that, African-American women heading in this direction, so there were very few people to look up to. You just had to have faith.
May we give as the Savior gave. To give of oneself is a holy gift. We give as a remembrance of all the Savior has given.
