     Let me take you back a couple of years. Come with me as we relearn a lesson, one that has stuck with me,
in my present memory, and   1   me yet.
     We walked into Elida Road Hardware, an old-fashioned hardware   2  . No automatic door, not a computer
in the building, it was one that I went to fairly often. As we entered the door, two sounds   3   us. The sleigh
bells of last year made that sweet, peaceful tinkle as we opened the door. The other sound was the electronic
beeper that reminded Andy of our   4  .
     "Good afternoon, Ryan,"   5   the cheerful acknowledgment. Andy was a very   6   sort of owner. He was
of medium build height, and the smile on his face welcomed us.
     We walked across the old wood floor. Andy asked us what he could help us with. I told him we were   7   
a spring. He very patiently replied, "I have lots of springs. You're going to need to be more   8  ."
     "Just a spring for an old-fashioned screen door."

account!"
     He handed me the ticket and as I  14  it I asked, "You really trust my signature?"
     His reply surprised,  15  delighted me. "When I can't trust Jerry Hoover's boys, I can trust nobody!"
     We left, and the brain  16  started to forget things, in order of importance. But what Andy said that day rang
in my ears. And it rings in my ears today. That's a tall order to live up to. It's a high standard of  17 . My father
made a fame for that name, and I get to  18  the benefits. But on account of this, I  19  maintain that fame. And
that's  20  business.
