Almost 3 years since we lost Kelly to a better place.... but her memory and legacy will live on forever in me and many others that she touched if only for a second. (or she danced in front of - like no one was EVER watching!!) I am the proud recipient of the Betty Black Memorial award from years back and also had the great honor of singing along with the angels as they welcomed Kelly at her celebration of life. My Mom has had her 5 year cancer free ticket this year and with the support and positive role models like Kelly that were forever-giving and always there when you needed a shoulder to cry or laugh on.... it just made it easier to get to this point.
I have since moved to Alberta and miss so much being able to share such a fun-filled, emotionally charged weekend with everyone. Perhaps one year you should all come West???
I am the proud Mom of a new baby boy this past week and it really makes you realize just how precious life is all over again. My girls are already 8 & 11 years old!! Time flies!
For those of you contemplating joining the Run for 2008 - JUST DO IT!! It will be one of the most memorable weekends of your life leading up to it... the actual run... and how you have changed after it forever. God Bless each and every one of you fighting the fight yourself or supporting a loved one!! You all ROCK!!!! And don't forget to DANCE!!!!!!!!!!
Lots of Love Always - Shelley Welsh
