Our hearts ache with the news of the passing of John Henderson. As a person who modeled service above self (Rotary International Elkhorn Rotary Club ) he mentored and made connections to lift others to their highest potential. And so we are reminded of the poem, What is Success...

What is Success
To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children;
To appreciate beauty;
To find the best in others;
To give of one's self;
To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition;
To have played and laughed with the enthusiasm and sung with exultation;
To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived -
This is to have succeeded.

At Open Arms, we believe dignity is not a concept, it’s an action.
It shows up when we choose care over indifference, community over isolation, and hope over fear. Every act of service is a quiet declaration that every life has worth.
