In the past I was, to my discredit, very unaware of the great things being done by Special Olympics. Now that I am the parent of a special needs son, I look forward to particpating as a volunteer to help out wherever needed, and hope my son will someday too be able to participate.
RIP Eunice Kennedy Shriver. You made a difference to thousands upon thousands of kids. Who could ask for a better way to be remembered?
