Felony conviction is no life sentence to failure
DEAR ABBY: “Concerned Mother”
wrote to say that her 21-year-old son
was facing a felony conviction for buy
ing some electronic equipment that
turned out to be stolen. She said, “He
thinks if he’s convicted he’ll be brand
ed a failure, and his life will be ruined
because nobody hires a felon.” Then
she asked if there were any convicted
felons who had turned their lives
around and become successful.
Here’s my story:
In my early 20s, I was convicted of
delivering a controlled substance
(marijuana). I was not a dealer; I did it
as a favor to a co-worker. It was the
only time I had ever done such a thing.
It was a grave mistake -1 was guilty of
a felony - but I lived through it, and
will soon complete a 10-year probated
sentence. I was depressed and felt
like a failure at 24 until a friend told
me that he believed in me, but in or
der to succeed, I had to believe in
myself and pull myself up by my boot
Horoscope
ARIES(Mar. 21 to Apr. 19)
Dealings with those in high position
is favored now. Negotiate a business
deal or ask for a raise. You’ll have
luck now in bringing a project to a
successful conclusion.
TAURUS(Apr. 20 to May 20)
You may make a decision today
about an educational concern. You’re
good at getting your ideas across and
also work well with others. Meet with
advisers.
GEMINI(May 21 to June 20)
Self-discipline brings you gains on
the job. You’ll have a private chat
about a financial matter today. Book
keeping, investments and research
are favored now.
Time with my grandson is important to both
of us... And, so is his future.
My grandfather taught me at an early age how important it is to save for
tomorrow. “You never know,” he always said, “what your life may bring.” He
made me understand that by planning for future needs, he had more time to en
joy the present...particularly fishing with his grandson.
Now I am a grandfather, and it is up to me to pass on to my grandchildren
the importance of financial planning. That’s why, like my grandfather, I have my
Savings Account at Home Federal. The folks at Home Federal helped me to
design a savings program that is easy to follow. Their rates are competitive and I
always feel like they have my best interests in mind.
I feel good about saving for my future at Home Federal. Now, the only thing
my grandson and I have to worry about is finding the best spots to fish.

straps. And that’s exactly what I did.
I sent out resumes and had many
interviews in search of a job that paid
better than minimum wages. I got
many polite turndowns when my con
viction was discussed, but I never let
it get me down. I finally got a job and
worked my way up the corporate lad
der. I’ve proven myself to be a valu
able employee and refused to let one
mistake ruin my life. I continue to
grow because I believe in myself. To
day, this convicted felon is a very suc
cessful businessman.
I’ll close with some inspirational

'Education will not; the world is
