What People Are Saying About James Donaldson and his "Standing Above the Crowd" book (Charles Hall, One of James Donaldson's favorite relatives)

“I remember visits to James’ home when he was a very young, chubby boy who was extremely reserved and polite. As he grew rapidly, no one envisioned that one day he would play basketball in the NBA, but it was apparent that character-wise, he would grow as a Christian and one who would always be concerned about the quality of life for all members of our democratic society. This book reflects the character of the man who has captured the hearts of thousands as he pursues worthy goals on behalf of fellow citizens. He indeed “Stands Above the Crowd” in more ways than one.”

— Charles Hall, James Donaldson’s Relative

What People Are Saying About James Donaldson and his "Standing Above the Crowd" book (Mark Edwards, Head Basketball Coach at Washington University - St. Louis and Former WSU Assistant Coach))

“James Donaldson is a ‘will do’ type of guy. Whatever challenges were placed in front of him, he would quietly tackle them with hard work and tremendous focus. He not only dreamed about success, but worked for it, accomplishing much along the way. Be it on the basketball court, in the realm of business, or in the community, James constantly stands above others and serves as an inspiration to all who know him.”

— Mark Edwards (James Donaldson’s former assistant coach at Washington State University), Head Men’s Basketball Coach, Washington University

What People Are Saying About James Donaldson and his "Standing Above the Crowd" book (John "J.J." Johnson, Former NBA Player & Teammate)

“‘Jimmy’ (as I’ve always called him) has always been one to “Stand Above the Crowd.” I remember as if it were yesterday that he would arrive early at the Seattle SuperSonic practices and go through his drills that I taught him until he perfected them. Not many young players are willing to put in the time and effort that Jimmy did. That’s one of the reasons that he had a twenty-year professional basketball career! His Desire, Dedication, and Discipline approach is something everyone can benefit from. It’s been a real treat to watch his growth and progress through the years.”

— John “J.J.” Johnson, Starting Point Forward, NBA World Champion Seattle SuperSonics ’79

A Perfect Father's Day Gift for Dad and Loved Ones!

I just returned from spending several days with my wonderful 84 year old (85 on Saturday!) father in Sacramento this past week.  He’s doing great and is one of the most active and sociable people I know!

He’s so proud of my Standing Above the Crowd www.StandingAboveTheCrowd.com book (it’s dedicated to him) and he is all over town telling folks about it.
