People’s Choice Award Story here
Micah’s Moment, about a deaf fullback at Arlington’s Martin High School who perseveres and finally gets his chance to shine at AT&T Stadium, was honored with the People’s Choice award Saturday night at the Studio Movie Grill at Arlington Highlands. Micah Willis and his interpreter, Gary Claunch, joined Christopher on the red carpet at the festival, where their inspirational story was chosen as the audience favorite from 30 films screened at the festival.
Wow, congratulations, Gary! What an inspiration you are! Thank you for making a difference in Micah’s life, in mine, and everyone else you touch in our community.

You’re very kind David. Thanks! The way I look at it is if you can go home at night and feel like you made at least one positive difference in the world you won that day. If you also learned something you didn’t know in the process it’s a huge win.
