Hi Hill, we met on the set of you being a priest it was way back I think in 1999-2000. It was in Brooklyn N.Y. Anyway, I hope all is well with you. I hope you get this because we had such a great discussion on giving back to the communities & how a lot of children are lost & could use some extra help with giving back. I wanted to get some feedback & ideas I have towards a goal.
