Tears pour down my face as I read your blog and news. Our hearts are with you and your strong actions and memories of our children killed in action touch us deeply. We will miss you as you pass north of us but our thoughts and prayers are with you as you remember with us the lives of those gone all too soon. God bless you for your gift of thoughtfulness and remembrance. Lt. Mark Dooley’s gold star mom KIA 9-19-05

I was hoping to be one of your personal encounters today, but with a little luck perhaps I was. Your determination and grace – always some of my motivators when I am out on my own and feeling challenged on the road or trail. Even though, I could not be there in person, and I keeping my fingers crossed that you saw the little token of love I left you along your route today. Run. Mike. Heart. Bonnie.

Here’s to chance encounters and a coincidence of seeing your adventure in the local paper. Lets make sure it doesnt take another 30+ years to meet again. Keep going strong.

May you find many more interesting encounters.
Sometimes I read your posts 2 or 3 times
because there is so much to take in.

May your encounters
Be the wings upon your feet
As those we lost watch
And smile
Knowing you are reminding the world
They were, they are and
They always will be important to us
They maybe gone Mike but they are not forgotten.
