Wow, what a wonderful story, what a wonderful person. I really enjoyed listening to him tell his story and thank you folksteamer for the post, I will never in my life forget watching this. The only thing that I am not so sure of, is if Mr. McCreary realized just how strong of a person he truelly is!? None the less, I thank you Sir, you are an inspiration, in so many senses of the word.! Truelly you are...Can anyone tell me what Paper or Book he talks of for the more detailed story by chance???
