I’ll admit that Gordon Hayward brought me to Butler but I’ve since learned he was just a conduit to the real thing:). Each night, Dillon (age 9) and I would read what you were up to that day before going to bed to make sure we would have laughter filled dreams. We especially leaned on you for a smile when our dogs – Gus and Cedar – died almost 2 years ago so I want Pops to know that we’re sending extra laughs and good memories back his way to help fill that big hole in his heart.

Thanks again for the smiles, good dreams, and awesome basketball games – and for getting Baby Bro/Master Everett and Trip off to a good start!!!
