Dear Family & Friends:
Mark Pattison is a former NFL Player, philanthropist, successful entrepreneur and current executive at Sports Illustrated. He hosts a highly acclaimed podcast called “Finding Your Summit.” Mark invited me on his podcast. Here is the interview.
Mark has climbed six of the Seven Summits. Later this month, he will depart for Nepal to attempt a summit of both Mt. Everest and Lhotse. If Mark is successful, he will be the first NFL Player to reach the summit of the highest mountain on every continent.
Check out Mark’s website and consider tracking his epic climb of Everest & Lhotse. I feel a kinship with Mark because he has a child with significent medical issues, just as we do with my beloved grandson, Ollie.

Great story, Bill, with similar threads to your life. Thanks for sharing it. We wish Mark success in Nepal!
Thank you, Bill, for sharing Mark’s achievements– which have a parallel in you. So inspirational.

I loved this Dad! (except for some of the future trip ideas)
Love Lisa
Special people draw special people into their sphere. No surprise here that this well known person has similarities to another well known/loved person.
