It’s raining here in DC. Outside and in our hearts. We’ve attended two days of meetings with other grieving families. We’ve learned a lot about pending trucking legislation. We’ve hugged a lot. We’ve cried a lot.
We’re headed off now to meetings on the Hill. I’m doing a press conference this morning which makes me nervous, but I remember Dad, and he makes me strong.
I’ll tell you all about it when I get back home. It’s sad, it’s empowering, it’s confusing, sometimes it’s overwhelming. Always Dad is in my heart.

I hope it goes well for you, that you all manage to achieve something and the memories aren’t too hard to bear.

You and the other families are sending a powerful message – a personal message- to those who may have never given this issue a second thought.
Your Dad’s face is shining down on Washington!

Dad was so right there for me this trip. A comfort, like he always was.
