Ethan: Somewhere warm. Maybe Florida.
Icon: Think back to Kindergarten. What comes to your mind?
Ethan: I was in Mrs. Jones’ Kindergarten. Actually, at the time I was thinking, “This is boring (laughing).” I remember the color songs. That’s how I learned to spell “purple.”

Ethan: I’d like to attend Rhodes State in Lima and graduate with an associate’s degree in nursing. Eventually I’d like to become a nurse practitioner or nurse anthologist.
Icon: Well, congratulations and good luck in your career. It’s been nice talking with you.
