Ram Galindo, CEO of the Galindo Group,
recently published his book The Making
of an American, an autobiography that is
packed with wisdom and insight into
America and why it is a country in which
dreams can be realized. He has also
joined LifeintheBrazos.com to write a
column called "The Power of a Dream",
based in part on his book. His column is
sure to be an inspiration to all.
LifeintheBrazos.com salutes Mr. Galindo
on his accomplishments and recognition
received for his book and we welcome
him to our publication!
And speaking of the power of a dream,
Mell and Willie Pruitt know how to make
a dream a reality. The couple started 7
years ago with nothing but a vision and
stuck with it through adversity, rejection,
and even illness to raise the funds needed
and construct a museum to showcase the
African American culture and it's
contributions to our country and our<
communities. At the recent dedication,
Mell said "this is a place for all to learn
and enjoy." The museum recently
opened its doors debt free thanks to
the hard work of Mell and Willie Pruitt
and many others who supported this
effort. LifeintheBrazos.com salutes you
Mell and Willie! Location and contact
