To my husband Adrian:
On the 16th anniversary of your "Sleep in Jesus".
I realize that "everything" in life is uncertain , but

Chief,
Sitting here and a thought of you ran across my mind. I am forever thankful to God for allowing us to cross paths in this thing called life. As your student you encouraged me when when I didn't believe in myself. You saw things in me I didn't see in myself and I just stopped by to send you this Heavenly email to say Thank You Sir!!! Love you Big Chief!
