"She has inspired me in so many ways, but I would say, for both in my life and my career, she taught me what hard work meant. My parents own and operate a ranch, and she does all the work, she does all the grind."
"I think one of the most important things that she's taught me, or showcased it, is that you can dive into the grunt work and you can also clean up and you can be as polished and poised as possible."
"She would come home after a long day's work, pick up both my sister and I, and we would be traveling to either a game or some sort of practice. She would pick up Bill Miller's. We'd eat it on the road while we were changing into our uniforms or our practice gear."
"We were always on the run, and we'd do it the next day just as well, if not better. She was always so excited for any of those opportunities. It never seemed like it was hard work for her."
"She taught me that it was perfectly appropriate for a woman to roll up their sleeves and get into the grind just like any man would."
