FIRST PERSON/OPINION Via e-mail: We would like to take this time to thank all of you for your wonderful support to us this year. It has been a very difficult time for us. Some days the pain is so unbearable but with the help of our “Race Family” and friends and family at home, we manage to hang in there. October 18, 2008 will be a hard day for us in Daytona. It has been a year since our son Andrew (a.k.a. Skip) was killed and tragically taken from us. So please on this day, say a prayer for us and remember how wonderful our Skip was. We are very honored to have Airfence at Road Atlanta with Skip’s name on it. Thank you so much for your donations and also thank you to the Roadracing World Action Fund and the Ulrich family for dedicating a section to Andrew. We realize life goes on, but ours truly stopped on October 18, 2007. So THANK YOU for helping us! Thank you for the cards, calls, hugs and continuing to be our customers and/or friends. Everyone helped us sooooo, but I would like to give a special thanks to the following: Preacher Tim: You are the best, I couldn’t have survived without you! Gerald Stokes: Thanks for our special chats! Libby Wikle: The cards throughtout the year helped so much! The Ulrichs: Thanks for the Airfence! What an honor! Mary Pegram: Thanks for always being there for us. Jodi & Geoff May: Thanks for putting us on the helmet, that was awesome! Bree: What can I say, YOU ARE GREAT! To all the racers that made sure they came to me each and every day to give me a hug! (and mechanics too!) Rick, Ross, Travis, Anthony, Wing, Jim, Mike, Scott: Thanks for your hard work! It would take a very long time to list all the names I need to but hopefully you know what you mean to us and how truly blessed we feel to have your support. I also want to thank my wonderful husband, Moose! In case anyone is not aware of this, Moose is a truly awesome person! I am so very lucky! He has taken very good care of me through this whole tragic thing and I am so very thankful for him! Thank you! Theresa Kuykendahl Trackside Racers Supply, Inc. Canton, North Carolina
