Nanjing - the Mitchells



UPDATE:  Ken is famous!  On that link below, the student's post about Ken went viral on China's Facebook.   : )

For the national "Tomb Sweeping Holiday" we flew to Nanjing to rendevouz with Ken and Becky Mitchell, Logan friends.

Becky has done great work there. She and her students have done service at a Chinese school for deaf children--brought it into prominence and gotten a lot of support.

Meanwhile, Ken has coached basketball year after year. The students love him and have even hung his picture in their gym.

Here's a great link. Nanjing University's campus website posted a picture of Ken hanging up basketball nets. The article praises him for "doing good works" with no thought of reward.

PS: Come to find out Ken went to Franklin High School in Los Angeles, alma mater of Lloyd and Lucille Pack, my parents. We had fun comparing notes.
