As he comforts a grieving mother, Tar Heels' Joel Berry understands his calling

Posted Dec 25, 2017
Joel Berry begins each morning on his sofa, tilts back his head, closes his eyes and imagines all the good that can come out of the day ahead. At night he repeats the process, using the time to reaffirm the blessed things that happened that day and heeding his father’s advice to “always go to bed with a pure heart.’’ Which is why, when Joel read an email from Carol Freedman, he immediately recognized the connection.
