A few years ago, my high school’s choir sang the National Anthem at a Cardinals game. How fantastic is that? I find it to be quite an honor to part of an anthem chorus, although this is not my ideal way to enjoy a baseball game.

What is Your Ideal Career? I believe my ideal career would be in the legal field. There many professions in this field. Growing up in the 60’s and 70’s it was a challenge for me and my family.

This opinion didn’t change until one summer I met a police officer that changed my opinion about the police force. By his action he showed me
