We all have heroes we look up to. These role models inspire and can teach us life lessons. They give us examples of how a successful life is forged. We grow and learn life based principles in part on the role models we choose. Sometimes our heroes are a minister, athlete or maybe a great teacher we had in school. Bill Thomas had the good fortune to have a father that was his hero and this book reflects Bills journey and what he learned from his hero ....Ben. Joe Anderson
It has been my great pleasure to have know Bill Thomas for the past 40 years. StorateTek was two years into Chapter 11 Bankruptcy when Bill accepted position as our Senior Territory Executive. I always thought it was blind fate the landed Bill into the epicenter of our company's struggle, during the spring of 1986. Little did I realize it was our destiny to have the son of Ben Thomas, to share his father's legacy, teamwork, initiative and successful leadership success for our staff and customers? Dale McMillan
These are my thoughts from reading the book about Ben Thomas through the eyes and memories from his son, Bill. Life is not always easy and how you react to the ups and downs can be valuable lessons for others. Ben was a hero to some and a role model for EVERYONE. I'm sure when Ben enters Heaven God told him: JOB WELL DONE MY SON. Thank you for sharing the story about you Father. Bret King
"I know what it is to be in need and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and all situations, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through him who gives me strength." Philippians 4:12-13. Ben Thomas personified these verses. His lessons are still being taught daily. Thank you Bill, I'm glad you shared your father's life and wisdom with me Royce Godwin
Just read your book. WOW, WOW, WOW. Notice I said that three times. My first thought was I'm proud we attended the same school. Even before I got into the story I was impressed by your writing skills. I think I was out the day they taught those. Seriously, your book is so much more than a biography and thanks to you and all others who read it. They have the great fortune of you sharing your Father's extraordinary life as well as the lessons he taught you. His story of courage, intellect, kindness, love and understanding is awe inspiring and you did a fabulous job conveying his wonderful spirit and enlightenment. In addition, I appreciate your personal insight, wisdom and life lessons of your own you shared. I feel richer and wiser. Your Father's life and story, and yours as well, will be a lasting legacy to your children and grandchildren. Everyone should read this book. With your help and thanks to you he is still teaching. Many thanks and much admiration
