Great people Quote by Johnny Luckett
“The sad duties of burying loved-ones are fresh in the minds of the great people of the Philippines; let us lift their burdens now, and carry their cross while they grieve and overcome this catastrophic nightmare. There is much to do my friends; first-and-foremost the people must be sustained with food; water; and shelter; then the rebuilding of homes and lives must commence. I'm so humbled by the great zeal and spirit of the Filipino people; and I am honored to call them my friends. - Johnny Luckett”
