I am so proud to be related to her, not because of her financial success, but because of the example she has set for what she has done with her success. This woman has such a BIG heart, and has given the expression "giving back" to a whole new level. Tennessee is so fortunate to have such a citizen contributing to the well-being of the state and its residents. We need more like her.
