“ Ya Gotta know where to Go….The FUN Starts Here….”

“make her feel extra special that day“

THANK YOU MOM!

When I put each This coming Sunday is MOTHERS issue together, I always think...would mom approve? I’d DAY. That special day each year like to think each issue is MOM that we take the time (you APPROVED! should!) to say thanks to our Mom’s. Gearheads take care of your Like many of you, my Mom is not Mom’s...you only get 1. Sunday is her special day, so make her around anymore for me to have feel extra special that day. Give conversations with, enjoy that her an extra hug...just because. special meal or food she would cook just for me, or just go see her. Miss her...SURE DO!

Give her a hug for me too!

My mom is still with me though and I bet yours is too. Right there in your heart and on your mind too. For me personally, each issue of the Gearhead Gazzette has my Mom in it. She was (my Dad too) a big believer in getting us kids to read a lot and also to write correctly. She always made sure we wrote things the right way for our school work, and it has paid off for me.

Kodah had Acute Leukemia, which would later be diagnosed as AML (Acute Myeloid Leukemia), a fast-growing form of cancer of the blood and bone marrow. Kodah has had blood and platelet transfusions, marrow draw, spinal tap for fluid testing and a few tubes placed Kadah also started chemotherapy on April 3, 2017.
