I know when I started 48 years ago, I was not promised the journey would be easy. I'm sure you have endured both the good and the bad, but I'm guessing you're glad you had the chance to be a farmer. You have been an asset to your family and community. It's amazing to me that a long career can easily be forgotten (by others) once you are no longer involved in an active role.
