Will Always Think Of You

Joey, I've cried so many times over the years since Marty's mother told me what happened to you. It's the little things that remind me of you, Hershey's Deep Dark Chocolates because you were the only person who took them out of my candy dish; nobody else liked them, young pilots at the base (I'm married to an AF Colonel), and a beautiful letter of thanks that you wrote to me on a plain piece of notebook paper torn out of a notebook and folded into a square. That is one of my most priceless gifts from students. I am so proud of you that you accomplished your goal and so sad that your dream was cut so short. You will always stand for everything that is good, focused,hard-working, friendly, polite, cheerful....golden. I always know when a kid is a "Joey McConnell", someone special.
