Very inspiring story. I hope he finds the guidance and wisdom he needs to be successful. I hope other Mayors in Mississippi will step up and mentor him. As long as his desire is to do the right thing, I think he'll be okay.

"Inspiring." That's an interesting take. If allowed but one word to describe this story, I'm curious: how many others would choose the word "inspiring?"

Jay I guess you would need inspiration to want to be anything in a community of 220.
