This past weekend my friend Les Doiron was gracious enough to bring over some members of the annual Charity Golf Classic in Port Alberni. It was made up of celebrities including Canucks Alumni Hockey players. You'll notice in the picture that's Richard Brodeur beside me. When they left he gave me a hug and a kiss as if I was a longtime friend. It meant a lot to me. Bernie Pascal was also here and I kept on saying to him, I can't believe you are in my living room, I would watch you on TV in my living room and this is quite different now. He laughed at that. There was members of the A Channel, and Les was saying later they may want to do another follow up story on me. I think that would be great, as it generates more awareness for ALS. I also forgot to tell you that while they were here I was able to tell them my story about building the house and 2 On A Roll's, a trip to Toronto and most recently about building the FU-ALS racing truck. From what I was told all of them were quite moved by what they had seen & heard. Thanks very much again Les!

I can only imagine how exciting it was to have Richard Brodeur & Bernie Pascal in your home. Les did a wonderful thing for you bring these special people to you. The building of the FU-ALS racing truck sounds very exciting will we be seeing it here in the valley? Take care Bob, Star & Skye
