The Story Behind- BE IRON.
The Legacy of Adam H. Jackson:
August 12,1979- August 25, 2018
"Everyone's Best Man"
"As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another." Proverbs 27:17
This proverb may sound familiar to you. It was Adam's life verse and he displayed it proudly (on a post-it-note) on his desk BUT in condensed form, ACTION form...
"BE IRON."
Adam understood this call to action! He loved, listened, lead and learned with such passion and urgency. As a founding member of Leaderwithin we honor Adam's life and legacy through our annual golf outing as we further our mission and BE IRON for those in our community and beyond.
WE LOVE YOU AND WE MISS YOU, ADAM!!!
