Summary
My dad’s wisdom, generosity, empathy, and humility had a huge influence on people around the world.My sisters, Kristi and Libby, and I are very lucky to have been raised by our mom and dad. One night in the 1990s, before we started our foundation, Melinda, Dad, and I were standing in line at the movies. Dad simply said, “Maybe I can help.”The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation would not be what it is today without my dad. And he would not let any of us forget the people behind the strategies we were discussing.People who came through the doors of the Gates Foundation felt honored to work with my dad.
