A note from Izolda. I admit it. I fangirled at the Captain. He stands for my deepest-held beliefs. He has been doing it all his life and has inspired many to take up the call and do what they can do to help. I'm so grateful for this opportunity to speak with him and bring his wisdom and insights to you.
