From Dubois County

It's Thursday, Reader,

I am inspired by Boone's work.

Growing up dirt poor and a little vertically challenged only sharpened Boone's discipline and determination to succeed on his own terms. That scrappy attitude never left him — and it shows in everything he's built.

Operation Mind Body and Soul, a resource for veterans and anyone in crisis, has grown remarkably over the years. But Boone is quick to credit the support and generosity of Dubois County for making it possible.

Check his story out in today's headlines.

From Dubois County with love.

Matthew and Amy Crane
