Great Friends
There are certain times when you realize what great friends you have. Those who without hesitation will reach out to lend a hand with whatever you need. In today's economic times, people are falling back on those friendships more and more. I was reminded of this again today. Earlier, I sent out a letter to the many of the people whose path I've crossed throughout the years. The letter explained that a new friend of my daughter's was sick with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. That her father had decided to join Team in Training and ride his bicycle in a 100 mile event this March to raise money for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. To support him, his daughter and all people suffering from Leukemia, I am joining him on the ride. I reached out to my old friends to ask them to help us by making a donation. Emails and donations have been coming all day. One friend summed up the sentiment saying, "anything for you, dude." I am touched and I am honored to know so many great people. Happy Holidays. -Mike PS: If you would like to help us raise money, you can do so by following this link: http://bit.ly/gzKhpJ.
