TTRR 2006

To Tony, Vicki, and All Who Experienced and Shared the Tommy Thompson Reunion Ride

What an Amazing Journey We Will Remember.....

We laughed, we cried, we vented when hours in the hot sun took a toll.....

Yet all in all... we loved, we cared. We reached out, touched hearts, minds,and one
anothers souls.

Be it with a grin, with a caring smile, raucaus laughter, a handshake, a kiss,
a hand on a shoulder.
a hug

We shared stories, made new friends, lived and learned about one another......

What an amazing adventure to share with one another, and now with our friends and family.

to Yesterday...Today...Tomorrow...Until We Meet Again

I thank you, and I know Forrest thanks you from the bottom of our hearts for all that you are, and all that you have done, offered, and shared ....

I love You
Hugs
Mary Ballering
