Default Race Wrap-up

I don't know if I posted this here. If I did, I'm sorry for posting it
twice. If I didn't, I'm sorry for forgetting to do it sooner. In other
words, I'm just a sorry piece of...never mind.

************************************************** ******
Hi guys!!! What a great race!!! We had lots of fun, as we always do, and
I was so glad to see so many of you that I don’t get to see throughout the
year! Don’t know if you knew, but our team raised $7,780 this year, which
is well over the goal of $7,000. I want to thank all of you for making
this possible! I do want to send special thanks to a few. First, my dad,
who challenged everyone on his boat forum to donate by offering to match
their donations. Between them, they raised around $3,000! Thank you, dad!
I also want to thank Sean Heath, who, while recovering from a traumatic
brain injury, walked the 1K with his walker, and he crossed the finish
line!!! He also raised over $1,300 for the team! You humble me, Sean, and
I am most appreciative of all you did. Our team was 6th largest in the
city, with 150 members, and we were 6th in the city in fund-raising.
Again, if you go to the race website, you’ll see us listed in the top 10.

I am so fortunate to be surrounded by you most wonderful people….to quote
myself, "like a stone, encircled by most precious gems"..I am so blessed.

Soooo, look for my e-mails again in January. Don’t forget your mammogram,
ladies, and while we’re at it, your colonoscopies, ladies and gentlemen.No
reason to lose your life over such a preventable things. Take care of
yourselves!

All my love, and heartfelt thanks, once again!

Renee

So, until next year when, God willing and the creek don't rise, I'll be
begging for donations again.

Y'all got me good this time. Save your money and get me worse next time.

Have a spectacular day!
