This Thanksgiving Day 2009, I want to take this time and thank all the people in my life who has had a perfound influence. I may not of have listen to them when I should of have, but I can sit right here and say they have had a positive influence on my life. Because of that influence I am very thankful.
Lucile and Everett Cussins Sr. – Mom and dad weren’t very well educated or articulate about how they felt. They love my brother and I. They wanted the best for us. They wanted us to work hard and make the most out of what we have.
John C. Cussins – My brother, who was more like a older brother, in later years. He is the more stable, critical thinker.
Wally and Beverly Walrath – An older couple who opened they home up to a bunch of crazy hippies and teenagers. It was through them many lives were changed.
Steve Hastings – Nicknamed the hitchhiking preacher in the 70′s. He inspired me to travel beyond the world I grew up.
Larry Palm – Quite intelligent, many times I look back and wish I had a life like his.
Ruth Wilson – aka big sister. She seemed to be there when I needed a big sister the most. My only regret was that I was not there when she left this world.
Chris Luck – My best friend. He raced cars, organized events, and confronted me and many issues. We have lost contact over the years. His influence is still there.
Doug Murren – Pastor, and counselor. His weekly sermons always seem to be just what I need to hear. I call them my weekly calibrations, because they help keep on the right path.
Ray Littrell – Best friend, business partner, and fellow media explorer. It is because of Ray I blog, do podcast, and study search engine optimization.
Norma Francs Cussins – My wife, lover, the only person that could settled me down long enough to see what is really important in life.
Ms T – My daughter who is teaching me to be a father.
