Memories.....

[JustMom1215]

  Lot's of memories hitting today.  Today was one of Rodney's favorite days, the day of the Indy 500.  He loved to watch racing, we were able to attend the Indy 500 several times, he had actually bought season tickets so we could go to all the races at the track.

    When  people would tease him about shouldn't you be at church, he would smile and say "hey, I am thanking God he gave man the knowledge to make those wonderful race cars". 

    It didn't matter if we were at the track or sitting home in our living room watching, when he heard those, as he called them, magical words "GENTLEMEN START YOUR ENGINES", we would scream with a high squeaky voice, YEEEAAAHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! and our daughter used to tell him, "dad you sound like a constipated chicken". 

    Man, I miss him.  Yes, I am so very blessed in my life, have many great things, I have remarried and have the most considerate and understanding husband I could ever ask for, I still miss Rodney, I always will.
