What is the aim or goal of your writing: My father's work ethic was impressed upon me at a very young age. He became a city manager despite having just an eighth grade education by working extremely hard all his life. My goal was to enlighten people throughout the county of its rich and talented athletes and teams spanning 1894-1999. I am extremely passionate about athletics and Saginaw County.
