Congratulations Jack!


Jack received a huge award- the L. Burton Barnes III Award for Public Service given by the Birmingham Bar.  The girls and I snuck into the meeting and waited somewhat patiently for an hour in a very quiet courtroom.  Grace was excellent- she sat with our friend Candi Williams from HOB in the seats (thanks Candi!).  Kate and I sat in the hallway and played with the occasional shout out.  Jack's very impressive service accomplishments were read and he received a standing ovation for his prestigious award.  He had no idea he was even nominated so he was completely surprised.  He even gave a great impromptu speech about service!  Congrats Jackie!

Well-deserved; I'm thrilled Jack was honored for a cause so dear to his heart. And I know you must be so proud of him!
