the main means of influencing people. It is the only means.
If this is an absolute truth, then
Cornetta Murray is an absolute
example of how we should conduct ourselves professionally
and personally as well. I have her for over ten years. She has always been the paragon of grace, intelligence,industry and optimism.

I have known Cornetta now for over 25 years and I can say without a doubt that her life has always been about helping people. She is always sacrificing for her kids, her family, and other 'family' that she adopts as her own. She has provided room and board for so many people in need of assistance and sometimes I don't know where she even finds the money to feed so many mouths but she does somehow. And she truly loves children, hence why she chose her profession. She goes above and beyond for her kids as she refers to them and her job is not only a job, it is her passion. I am one of those people whose life she has touched by giving me a place to stay at a time in my life when I lost direction and wasn't sure what I was doing. She took care of me like her own child and I will forever be grateful. I can say with certainty that nobody deserves this recognition more than she does. She is an angel.

Cormetta Murray is a phenomenal person, with a love for the young people she serves. She is hard working, and has an open door policy for all of the kids. Therefore, they have access to her whenever they need her. In addition, Cornetta has voluntarily taken time out on Saturday mornings to escort the kids to take the specialized high school exam. She also sacrifices her lunch break to supervise kids lunch periods. When they stay after school for practice or go on trips, Ms. Murray spends her money to ensure that the kids who don't have money, can get something to eat. She serves as an advocate for our youth with parents, staff or other kids. Cornetta cares for the children as if they were her own. Therefore, I know she is a wonderful candidate to be Life Changer of the Year.
