Hello, I'm William Bailey. I work in spray dry. I'm a spray dry operator. I started in 2016. My story's a little bit different. I lost my son 6 years ago to brain cancer. He was 20 years old when he passed and he fought it for 4 years. We found out when he was 17 and he fought it for 4 years. My faith has definitely gotten stronger you know. I've realized you know right after I lost my son I never lost faith you know. I always, always had faith in God but I was kind of, I was upset with him you know and you know when he sent them angels in blue to save my life, you know, it was a blessing you know. A lot of people think of jail as awful and terrible but it was the best thing that ever happened to me you know. I embrace it wholeheartedly and if it wasn't for that place where God could get my attention and get a hold of me and send me this way you know walking into a faith-based company…how ironic you know and it's just, it's awesome and you know from that I'm just so thankful. There's so many people in life that go through their whole life addicted and never get that chance to get a head check if you will. You know a wake-up call and I was very blessed for that you know. I know now that that I have a purpose here in life you know. I live a Purpose Driven Life and I've learned a lot of that those values from this place you know, these people.
