favorite actors.
PCT: What is your impact on Parker

done anything to impact Parker
County, although I believe it is the
best county in all of Texas with
wonderful caring and polite people.
My wife and I have worked closely
with the Weatherford-Parker County
Animal Shelter and, of course, Parker
Paws, so I guess that you could say
that, hopefully, we have helped save
a lot of animals’ lives.

worried about anything. I just leave
everything in God’s hands.

have ever done in your life?
SB: I’ve done a lot of crazy things.
I’ve bungee jumped; that was one
really good experience. I don’t think
I would do that again. It was a chal-
lenge in San Antonio.

on our ranch with our family is the

PCT: What’s the best piece of advice
you would give?
MS: Free advice is worth what you
pay for it — LOL. The best advice
that I have is to work hard, work
smart and never give up. My father
used to say that if you were driving a
car and you ran into a ditch, to back
out of the ditch, keep driving forward
and never look back. In my opinion
this applies to life for everyone and
I try to always remember it. And this
philosophy, as simple as it seems, has
helped me many times in my life.

have ever done in your life?
