Family & Friends…
I’d like to take the chance to thank those who made it all possible for me to get to this point…First and foremost i’d like to thank my parents…My mom,(XO) and Ralphy (SQUEEZE), who make it all possible, if it wasn’t for them I have no idea how I would do what I do, thank you for loving my dogs as much as much as I do, you make it easy for me to go to work and not worry at all about my pack.
To my brother Bob, THANKS for being such a possitive influence in my life, and mostly, thank you for being my big brother,
I’d like to thank my dad for getting me involved in this wonderful game…
I’d like to thank my many friends, for without them I would never feel love… thanks for putting up with my moods, and wild ways… not to mention the countless hours you spend with my mutts, and many sacrifices you have made for me, battling through the snow and rain so Molly and the kids get out to do their business.
To P Diddy, words will never express the thanks I have for your friendship, thank you soooo much for motivating me and getting this off the ground, you are a TRUE friend in every sense of the word, thanks for believing in me.
When it all comes down to it, I really need to thank , the “shooter”, Jonny D … I can never thank you enough for giving me your time and ideas. Jonny is the man who created this website and has taken me through elementary website school, never picking on me once, cause i was a dumb jock…or making fun of me cause i am twice his size…You have a beautiful family Jonny, I always wanted a friend like you, and i wanna keep you forever.
To Luke, thanks for being my little brother…I hope for you always, and love having you around…It has been incredible watching you grow up.
To my nephew Nick, this game is in your blood, take the ball and run with it.
To Mike, Peg, and the boys, Joe and Andre… thank you for the unconditional love you have given me since the day you rescued me…You guys are like my folks, and brother and sister all in one, Joe and Dre, what else can I say except thanks for being yourselves…you guys epitomise the true definition of “family”.
I’d also like to thank the fire department, for everything I have, because if they never took a chance on me, who knows where I’d be to today.
I really have to acknowledge anyone one who puts their stick in my care…I’d like to thank you all for the trust you have in me for giving up something so special…I hope I make you all happy when you bring me your sick sticks and you allow me to fix em up all pretty like… the money is always nice, but the smile on your face is worth a million dollars.
Last but not least …I’d like to thank the Great Spirit, you have given me many gifts to share with others, but the most important gifts you have given me are my dogs…Molly, Cooper, Diamond, Loosey, and now CoCo…I had no idea stinky, dirty dogs would help me feel real, but I know now that without words, expression can be seen in the eyes, a wet tongue, and a wagging tail. I know they won’t last forever, but i’m gonna make every day a great one, for all of us.
If I’ve left anybody out, its probably for a reason, but if you have broken bread with me just know that you are in my thoughts, because there’s too many people to mention.
In closing, take good care of your sticks, your pets and ofcourse your family…because without any of these, we are nothing.
Keep your stick up.
Me, Mom and Ralphy
