Gina Marie Erickson's acceptance speech:

Every heart that has beat strongly and cheerfully
has left a hopeful impulse behind it in the world,
and bettered the tradition of mankind.

In the World of Voice Over, these words of Robert Louis Stevenson describe the contributions of Mr. Chuck Riley. I am honored to receive this scholarship in his memory!
