- Well, it's hard to choose what I love most
about public television, because I like many, many things.
But I especially love music.
The Final Forte program brought young people
from all over the state to play with a major orchestra.
To see young people achieve what they have, that thrills me.
The best thing about public television
is that it continues with lifelong learning.
College and all the early schooling provides a foundation,
but really what you want to do is learn the rest of your life.
I decided about 20 years ago to join the Heritage Society
because I realized that would be a way
to perpetuate a legacy for education.
I've always felt that it's a good idea
to give back to the community.
My parents did it, my grandparents did it,
and I wanted to do that too.
