You are an influencer in your own world, I have always told my kids, people are watching what you do and what you say. Make sure you are doing the things you say you will do, that is integrity.

An influencer in my life is a man named Howard who owns an HVAC company locally. We got to know him through our worship services and for whatever reason, he seemed to like our family. He hired our son to mow his lawn, he taught him how to do a good job and then eventually asked him to come and mow the grass covered areas at his companies building. This helped our son start a small mowing business while he was in high school. Then when he was old enough, Howard hired our son to start apprenticing at the HVAC company and paid him well for the work he did. My son is an adult now and has different pursuits and yet Howard is still a good friend and mentor to him. In our life, Howard is an influencer. He has an impact in our life still today.

We have asked our team to ask for nominees for people who are community influencers. These are this years nominees. Congratulations and thank you for being a positive contributor.
