The Universe was working overtime today and I just have to share this: I put it out on the Motorcycle For Miracles network that if anyone has a friend, etc. near Columbia, Missouri I could use a warm couch for the night. Immediately my friend Tom Mulhall texts me and...

December 6, 1998…fifteen years ago. Feels like a lifetime in some ways, like yesterday in others. You came to us, chose us, to be your parents and we were honoured by your gift of brief life. Everyone who met you, whose finger you squeezed tightly in your tiny...
