Happy 4th of July!! Today also marks the 70th anniversary of Lou Gehrig's famous speech at Yankee stadium. MLB teams across the country are honoring him & supporting the fight against ALS today by wearing a patch on their uniform, "4ALS."

Thank you everyone & let's get rid of this disease once & for all!

xoxo I love you Papa always & forever.

" I wanted you to know that you REALLY express yourself well! Your dad couldn't be more proud.
I lost my dad 10 years ago and I still think of him every day. You and I are so lucky to have had WONDERFUL fathers. The lessons and love that they have passed down to us will affect us forever...
I still think 'What would dad do?'.
Love,
JK "
