Debbi never lived in Haiti, nor speaks the language, as did this one time resident, and MSHS '80 graduate . She brought teams in to watch her dance with our Friend Eko, a down syndrome young man. It was a great photo op for her, not only showing she knows missionaries but she has this friend. I lived in Haiti for 23 years and had an accident in 200 (run over by a truck) that shut our project down and give Debbi all donors. I still have a fruit tree nursery in Haiti and provide the poor with fruit trees. With the sales of fruits they can put their kids in school. I and a friend fund it.
Bon de bo!
