However, when he takes the stage and begins to speak - the questions disappear and the audience automatically listens. Speaking from the heart, with humor, on serious issues such as bullying, peer pressure, prejudice, stereotyping, diversity, leadership skills, drugs & alcohol - Papaw's unique style mesmerizes even the most die-hard cynic. Tolerance, respect, motivation and inspiration are woven into a powerful message that lasts long after the laughter.
