I am speaking at the commencement of the high school for leadership i
And public service graduation today

Yes any who endured deserve our praise and let's forget those who endured for the last time or second to last time last month. Interesting I recall more of my college than of my law school. I recall being dropped off by my step dad who drove me and two friends to our Jr High rehearsal at Queens College. No memories of the ceremony/ program - could be the picture Chaz took of the three of us crossing Kissena Blvd. I recall h.s. being outside at Forest Park but that's it (I do retain the program.). I recall college grads for Jonathan and Marisa (A certain U.S Senator spoke at both - I think same exact address and claimed he saw me in the audience at Marisa's when I saw him a day later.) and Jonathan's grad school convocation.
Just honor all the hard work of each and every grad (and their parents.)
