“I’ve learned in recent years that everyone has a story to tell.  These stories are oftentimes filled with many highs & lows, pleasure & pain.  So, when someone laughs or even smiles at me, I appreciate it even more these days because you never know the story behind that smile.  #LiveLaughLove”—Ron Fisher
