I’m real proud to have the opportunity to be over here doing great things. But without the love and support of my wife and family, I wouldn’t be able to accomplish the things that I do. I’d like to say hi to my loving wife, Ilsa, and my mother, Sandy, and father, Richard. I’ll be home soon. It makes you realize the things we take for granted. Cowboy up.
