The family has experienced a very tough three days that was emotionally exhausting for them on several levels.  We are proud to be able to ease their pain in some small way.  We are there for them; it is the least we can do.

The success of the past three days would not have been possible without the assistance and support of many people.  I would like to specifically thank my two assistant ride captains, Mike and Bruce, who recon'd the locations in advance and controlled the rider processions.  Rider Morris provided many contacts that would have been hard to do otherwise.  My thanks to Chief Corbin, Wyllie FD, Lt. Rob, Richardson PD, Sgt. Noffzinger, Dallas PD, and the Sachse PD for their patience, guidance, and direction.  We could not have accomplished these three days with out you.  The secret to relaxing a concerned family lies with all of you.
