"I've spent most of my life just focused on the road ahead, not looking back," Redford said in the acceptance speech for his 2002 honorary Oscar. "But now tonight, I'm seeing in the rearview mirror that there is something I've not thought about much, called history."

Robert Redford has died at 89. He was known for his long career as an actor and director, with films like 'Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid', 'The Sting', 'All the President's Men' and 'Ordinary People'

A month of good deeds in the community: In January, the NCS Fort Myers team, clockwise from top left, celebrated by bringing puzzles galore to American House Fort Myers for the activities director to provide residents; our FedEx driver came in upset after his cooler fell out of his truck, so we got him a new cooler and filled it with Gatorade, water, ice, and snacks; we celebrated by delivering a popcorn basket to Ambassador Healthcare At College Park in late afternoon to make sure the night shift got some; and visited Fort Myers Police Department and Cape Coral Police Department to deliver bags of snacks, water bottles, stress balls, pand other goodies, each bag decorated with a "We Appreciate You" shield.
