Alex “Butch” Wika was a great regional sales manager who taught me “Recognition is great – you can take that plaque to the local coffee shop, but don’t forget your 50 cents. Because without the 50 cents, you are not getting a cup of coffee.” Kim Bachman is a lifelong friend and brother who continues to show me the importance of love for family, God, and forgiveness.
