Grisham's Lessons #3 Service brings blessings

In this scene from Legend of Crystal Cove of The Island Gang series, Grisham agrees to help The Island Gang get Little Imp (his high end dinghy that has sat abandoned since the sale of his yacht) into seaworthy condition. As he gets involved with the kids he finds deep personal satisfaction. The kids love the water as much as he does, and he can see in them shades of himself as a youngster. Tyler, one of the boys, is autistic. Grisham is impressed with the way they include Tyler, making him feel like he belongs. His interactions with The Island Gang give him hope for the future. It isn’t long before his casual friendship with kids develops into something much more. Check out The Island Gang, by Larry Johns.
