I always have the best experiences and fun when I meet with Dr. Gary A. Green. I wish I could always see him at the drop of a hat if need be. He and I clock over 40 years of knowing each other and I have literally and happily watched him grow in his position and in his life! He fits like a comfortable shoe. He needs to be cloned! However, I don't believe in that. That is not in God's plan for us!!
