Many of you may already know that my mother passed this January. We waited until Derby Day to have her cel ration of life. This was always a day she looked forward to. She’d spend hours searching for the horse to put her ten dollars on, then let Rocky place her bet. We’d watch the race together on the TV, rooting all the way. I guess the best race was two years ago when we were able to be together and watch Nyquist win the derby on her birthday. I’ll be in Duluth for this race, also. We will hold a celebration of her life at the crematorium that afternoon, then move to her house to watch the race. I will be in Duluth Friday thru Monday. That will probably be the last time I’ll be back. I’d really like to see as many of you as I can,
