Peter Weicker’s Post

A very sad week for the Zehrs family. Two supermarket legends and industry leaders have passed away - Larry Kieswetter and Grant Heimpel. Both extraordinary men who always put customers and employees first. I fondly remember playing euchre with Larry at lunch break (he was a card master), and Grant, so passionate about the customer, teaching us to always do what’s right no matter what. They will be profoundly missed. I’m extremely grateful to have worked with them for many years… I learned so much about leadership and the business from both of them. My thoughts and prayers are with their families at this difficult time. https://lnkd.in/gNpJKnwC Larry Kieswetter https://lnkd.in/gtny9GsK

I don’t follow football closely, a co-worker shared this with me (thanks Marc). An excellent message from the greatest QB of all time. I think his thoughts/beliefs apply to all professions & industries. Tom Brady delivers powerful message on hard work during Patriots Hall of Fame speech: ‘No shortcuts’ "To be successful at anything," Brady said, "the truth is you don't have to be special. You have to be what most people aren't: consistent, determined, and willing to work for it. No shortcuts.
