November is a month of giving thanks, and this year, three students at Stanford University's Graduate School of Business said they are grateful to Bay Area Army Ranger Pat Tillman
Tillman was born Nov. 6, 1976 in San Jose and grew up to become a football player in the NFL.
"I think there's a set of core values that Pat Tillman lived by that is aspirational. And the core values of the Pat Tillman Foundation are the core values of Pat himself and I try to embody that every day," said Kennedy.features those core values of service, scholarship, humble leadership, and impact.
"I think among the military community, there's a tendency to discuss service as something that happened in the past," said Kennedy, "When I was transitioning out of the Navy, I too, kind of fell into that line of thinking where, I wasn't sure what I was going to do and lost that sense of purpose and meaning that was implicit in military service.""I believe that Pat thought that his best years of service were always in front of him," said Kennedy.
