Anyways, we had a teenager who became quadraplegic after an MVA. HE was with us a few weeks and he was devastated. Could not get him to smile. One day, out of the blue, Mr. Chuck Norris and his wife came over from CA to visit him. Apparently it was Mrs. Norris' birthday. They flew to NM to visit with a man dying from cancer and then came to see this boy whom they had heard about through a church group. I did not know that they were coming and walked into that. The boy could not stop smiling. The Norrises visited with the boy and prayed with him for sometimes. No rushed and no staged visit. They visited with us. We talked about Bruce Lee and Taekwondo. A weather system was coming in so the visit ended when we heard that. That's it. No posse. No media cameras. It wasn't even reported in the papers. They went back to CA to their baby twins whom they left for the day. I'm still not a Chuck Norris, the celebrity, fan but now I can say that he is a true warrior in the martial way. I believe that he and Rickson Gracie are from the same mold. I can't explain it to you who do not subscribe to that way.

Thanks ETD. I know a guy who worked with Chuck on a film. He told me that Norris showed up every day on time, ready to work, and showed respect to everyone on the set. My friend, who is a real cynic, had to admit that Norris is a #1 class act, "the genuine article" he called him.
