"Clarence, was one of mine (favorite teacher). I met you at a vulnerable time in my life. Economic down turn, unemployed, 50+, empty nest, savings almost depleted and fighting depression. Heard about KKC, Went and met this energetic, optimist, encouraging young man, teaching old people new skills. You were life changing for me. You made a difference. Your attitude helped me keep a positive prospective of life. Found employment and I'm still standing. Thanks for supporting me and others, encouraging us to stay in the race. The winner is not the fastest one, but we who can endure. Much to you Sir!" – Rosa Jewel
