My parents were honored with an award from the Sioux Falls Area Community Foundation for their years of service and philanthropy to our city. They were both so humbled by the recognition and even more humbled by most of my family being present for the ceremony and my dad's speech. He really honored my mom and her dedication to beautifying our community, and ended it with a poem he wrote probably 20 years ago. He talked about how he was able to get my mom to stay here when they first met rather than moving to Colorado, and how their view from their Riverview Heights deck is the best spot in the world, and for me, since it is home, I felt those words in my heart. I love how they compliment each other and as a team they set such good examples for all of us. Way to go, mom and dad!
