Missing my good friend Rhonda! I'll always treasure our phone calls, and her (and Bernie's) help on Autograph Day. Her tireless work on KID'S NIGHT was second to none! No one else could have wrangled over 350 bikes on one night for all the "Dirt Squirts". Her love of kids and keeping them on the right track was priceless. Thanks for the memories my friend.
