Goodbye old friend. You were one of the kindest most giving people I have ever met. You have given way more than you received. You helped me when I was down and that is something that I will never forget. I will always cherish the times we had with our trips to Indy. The fun we had and the chance to spend good times with the boys. Those trips were priceless. Memories are good to have. You are gone, but always in my heart.
