Thanks for sharing, Jimbo. For those of you who came to Minneapolis the first year, I actually told that story in a speech at our welcome reception for our players and corporate sponsors. The event was a fundraiser to buy adaptive ski equipment for kids with disabilities (of which my son is a part of the program) and one gentleman gave a $10K check there.

It's one of the most powerful stories I know and it is a good reminder about what is important.

Thanks again for sharing this! Your mom is a special person and we've been very fortunate to come into contact with other special people that go out of their way to bring quality and dignity to kids with disabilities (and adults).
