It’s back!

Strege writes:
On her Twitter profile, Bivens cites her philosophy: “Much is expected from those to whom much has been given.” Williams witnessed her putting her philosophy into practice.
“It was so interesting to me,” he said. “She had some cancer herself and now she’s spending many hours a week helping people. I know she had a controversial run with the LPGA, but there’s always this thing called redemption. She turned out to be a really cool lady. Very nice and fun. She perks people up around the hospital. I’m going through my chemotherapy and she made me think I can beat this. She just made me feel better.”
