I have sit back over the years and think about how lucky I am that all my kids grew up health without any problems. I look at my grandchildren and hope that they grow up the same, but, I know that because of the donations raised by fund raisers like this, if something where to happen they could go to Riley and be taken care of.

Ten years ago my niece spent a lot of time at Riley fighting leukemia. I know for a fact, today she is alive and well because of the wonderful doctors and staff at Riley. I know how comforting and reassuring they were to her parents and our family. The knowledge the doctors had to treat the disease was magnificent.

Without the donations to Riley who knows how things would have turned out. This is going to be my third year riding for a very good cause. It's for the kids, yes, and I love doing it for them. Please donate what you can, and help me reach my goal.

From my heart, thank you very much
