Members who are part of our history--Steve F

He said "I've made mistakes; I'm not a mistake."  (Misty C)

He also had that saying on the mirror of his bathroom.  (Jeremy F)

He carried a list of the things he lost because of his drinking, and would look at that if he was ever tempted.  (Jeremy F)

Members who are part of our history--Mel H

After he was sober, Mel went to work one day, on a train, and wasn't his normal self.  He was really tough to get along with--enough that the other workers on the train asked him what was wrong.  He stopped, and realized he'd forgotten to pray that morning.  They wanted the spiritual Mel back bad enough that they stopped the train, made him get down in the cinders outside of it, and pray!  Then everything was okay.  (Pat R and Bob E)
