I never met Alan, but always looked for that TGAB.

Fairmount and Shanahan those are wonderful stories that will linger forever.

I'll be 61 in a few months and I too often think about my mortality. My mother was a 4x cancer survivor, and after the 4th win she held a "one day at a time party" every year. A wonderful event that put life in its proper perspective.

I try and enjoy every day of life that I have. A trip to the track, the golf course, the company of friends and family.

I will enjoy a round of golf today in fantastic weather here in Palm Springs.

I will enjoy dinner later tonight celebrating a friend's birthday.

Tomorrow my wife and I are going to see Kansas and enjoy a nice steakhouse dinner.

I'm thankful that our beloved little terrier Stewie is starting his 15th year with us this month.

I am Thankful that I am in pretty good health.

I am thankful that I have a small circle of wonderful friends that love and support me.

I am so sorry to hear about Alan. Sounds like a life well lived. May he be resting comfortably and peacefully today.

God Bless you all and enjoy your day
