Comparison Of Andrew Michie And Theodore Beddoe

103 Words1 Page

Throughout the last two years, working with both Andrew Michie and Theodore Beddoe, provided opportunities to see how two grown men from drastically different walks of life share many similar qualities. Andrew, a welder from Pittsburgh, came to South Florida when he was twenty-nine, starting a new journey and Teddy, a Florida native and five-star chef, at fifty-two gave up everything he had for one last opportunity at starting a new life. While from different walks of life, Andrew and Teddy share more values than either can see; through open-mindedness, courage, and humbleness they are equally gifted with the ability to help others.
