“Eugene was invited to class, and we had used Dave\u2019s Killer Bread the first class as an example of how to construct a genogram,” Noxell said. “They\u2019re a contemporary business [students] can relate to.”<\/p>\n

Dahl, who also presents as a motivational speaker and has been open\u00a0sharing his story of spending 15 years in prison before rejoining the family baking business<\/a>, said the experience was an opportunity to share with the students get something back himself.<\/p>\n
