I’ve met a few folks.

Met Larry McDonald on a 6th grade class trip to D.C.

Shook hands with Reagan as a teen, at a leadership conference he spoke at.

DH met Sean Hannity decades ago, when he was just on radio. He wasn’t a fan of his personality even then

Got to visit Billy Graham’s Montreat home and meet his daughter, when I was his granddaughter’s camp counselor.

Have met about a dozen MLB players from the 80’s-90’s one coached my son and is still good friends with my husband.

Met Herman Cain in 2012 when working on his campaign.

Other than that, my husband has met a lot of famous people that have patronized his business.
