Hi all - I just saw my husband's post to the List, which was sent without my knowledge. While I appreciate that he wants to defend me, it is not necessary. This award is supposed to be for Billy. That is all I ever wanted. I didn't know what to say at the Victory Dinner, so I asked my daughter, Allison, one of the smartest people I know. Here's what she had to say: "Thank you all very much for awarding Billy with the LaMar Kuhns Award. It is an honor for us as well as Billy to be recognized by his peers for his years of hard work and dedication to this sport that he truly loved so much.? I would also like to thank everyone for their kindness and support over the past 9 years.?It has meant?so much to our family to know he?was so loved by everyone and?is so missed. You kindness will never be forgotten. ? Alison Schenck (Billy Rossi's daughter)" ________________________________________________________________________ Email and AIM finally together.
