Some guidance:

-- Focus on ONE moment that you will never forget.

-- Make sure you're in a quiet, non-echoey room.

-- Speak conversationally, like you're talking to a friend.

-- Let us know how this person continues to impact your life.

-- If your hero were standing front of you today, what would you say? Address them directly.

-- Here are some tips on how to make a great recording on your phone.

Thank you!
