"One does not have to be an angel in order to be saint" --Albert Schweitzer
Ford's Fortune
Bob Ford didn't let the pine tree that Hurricane Katrina hurled through his roof, narrowly missing him, slow him down. After the storm, the Jackson Mississippi golf-course owner and caterer took the food out of his freezer and drove to the Mississippi Coliseum to feed some 1,200 New Orleans refugees. When provisions ran out, he went on local television to plead for more donations. When the Red Cross were handing out doughnuts and drinks for breakfast he began cooking sausage and eggs. He has also lined up jobs, found games for kids, and even coordinated wedding.
