Two Mentors Lost but not forgotten!

This is national mentoring month and North Carolina has lost two of our greatest mentors this week. Coach Kay Yow, coach of the Women's Basketball Team at NCSU and Governor Bob Scott, former Governor of NC and President of the NC Community College. To leave the world a better place than it was before you is a legacy that only a few people can claim. Both Coach Yow and Governor Scott are two people that share that esteemed place. Both of them shared their entire life by giving back to others. While one mentored many a young and aspiring politician, the other mentored thousands of young women (and men) who were graced by her presence. Both of them will be honored and remembered. Both of them leave behind so many people who can say that they touched their lives in positive and profound way! I am one of those so blessed!
