I don't think 50 years from now people will be talking about me.

I think what my legacy is, frankly, what matters most is my kids and the things I show them that live on in their lives and in their hearts and in their souls and in their kids.

And those are the kinds of things that matter.

And as I look back at this, my 71 years on this earth,

I just feel so blessed to have had the chance to do work that I've loved, to love, to touch people.

And I hope in some small way I've done this in a way that is worthy of all those blessings.
