Sinopsis

"Jack [Gibson] shares snippets of his life in short stories that will make you laugh and maybe even shed a tear and most importantly provide insight into a man who has achieved much and helped many. Sunday morning visits with cancer patients, travels to Scotland that bond him to his heritage and roadways that run throughout Maine and our country each with a tale of its own...this book will make you take stock of your own life and the profound impact we can all make on our communities." Richard W. Petersen, Pres. & CEO Maine Medical Center From the seven-year-old budding entrepreneur selling magazines door-to-door to the octogenarian (who would believe it?), Gibson has found ways to give back to his community and his beloved State of Maine. Jack Gibson walks a life of intention. Through his career with his paving and recycling companies, Jack was a problem solver. He discovered and licensed methods to make waste products "disappear" into usable products. In essence, Gibson created inert products from contaminated soil, used pavement, rubber by-products and a whole spectrum of construction debris. In his personal life, from honoring his mother and father, to parenting sons, to mourning a life lost to relearning to love, Gibson provides a lesson to all of us that our lives here on earth are important. Whether at work or in the home, what we do matters. Jack Gibson, in his humble delivery of his story, let's us know that we matter.
