Will,
Sounds like we have something in common... dads who were wise, and knew that building sons with character was their highest calling... loved the quote about your dad-

"My father taught me that there is no work that is beneath me."

My dad lived a life very similar...  I remember when he had just become the president of a community college, and they had just established the foundation, which would be a vehicle for people to donate to the school for scholarships and projects.  Believe it or not, they decided to do a "bike-a-thon" around the local lake.  Rather than show up as a dignitary, shaking hands and making speeches, my dad showed up in his maroon &amp; gold warm up suit (school colors), and rode my brother's ten speed bike the 5 mile course.  If others were doing it, he was going to lead by example.  That's stuck with me all these years.  Thanks for the reminder, from your dad and from mine that no job should be beneath us as leaders.
