On the 10th anniversary of your passing I don’t miss you any less than day one. I still expect to see you come through the door with that big grin on your face and I think of you each and every day. I miss you still. The hurt in my heart is still so unbearable. Give Abbie and Skip a big hug for me.I will attend my ninth Ride of Hope this May honoring you making sure that you are never forgotten. All my love, mom.
