A Special Invitation

You are invited to view the full feature-length documentary " A Friend

Indeed - The Bill Sackter Story " right now at BillSackter.com for free!

This inspirational 90-minute documentary explores the unlikely real-life

friendship between Bill Sackter (who was abandoned in an institution for 44

years for mild mental retardation), and Barry Morrow (a young idealistic college

student who became Bill's legal guardian to keep Bill out of the institution),

and how their relationship and Bill's unique embrace of life allowed Bill to

become an internationally known hero for people with disabilities.

It's a very funny, highly emotional, and ultimately uplifting experience

for everyone to enjoy, and it's received great praise, many standing ovations at

screenings around the country, and was voted the #1 Audience Favorite in 5

consecutive film festivals!

Perhaps you remember the made-for-tv drama " Bill " (1981) starring Mickey

Rooney and Dennis Quaid that portrayed the events in Bill And Barry's life, or

maybe you've never heard of Bill Sackter. Now for the first time you have the

chance to know the real Bill Sackter through actual film/video footage and

photographs of Bill himself and interviews with those closest to him, told in a

very entertaining and engaging way.

It's an amazingly powerful film that will bring you to tears and leave you

smiling. See Lane Wyrick's award-winning independent feature about friendship,

faith, and the value of human compassion.
