“Vertus Hardiman’s message provides a powerful testimony that even the most vile of deeds cannot erase. He chose not to allow anger and revenge to destroy him and instead permitted his spirit of love and forgiveness to turn tragedy into triumph. Participation in the Life Reveal Circle has allowed our students to share insights about how they will apply Vertus’ teachings to their individual lives. Vertus Hardiman has given youth an example of a noble life worth emulating.”

“After listening to Dr. Smith, I realized that beyond teaching my students state standards, I must communicate with them about life and how we should treat others. It is highly important for educators to encourage students to form valuable friendships and give all peers an equal level of dignity and respect. With that, my hope is that they will become better global citizens and servant leaders for all they encounter as they traverse through life.”
