On Thursday of this week we received our Flight 93 memorial ride package. In it was a short biography of the Flight 93 hero we are to represent, a pin, patch, dog tags, t-shirt, and flag with the hero's name. The t-shirt has the Flight 93 Let's Roll Ride logo on the front with the names of the 40 heroes who lost their lives in a field in Shanksville, PA on Sept. 11, 2001.

| Back of T-shirt with heroes' names Me and Mike will be representing Deora Frances Bodley. She was the youngest passenger at just 20 yrs old. She was from San Diego, CA and attended Santa Clara University where she was studying in French and psychology with her major and goal to be a child psychologist. Deora loved children and spent her free time volunteering at the San Diego Zoo and the Special Olympics. Deora loved her family, reading, and writing. She was on her way home after visiting friends in New Jersey. |
I ask that on Sept. 11th, you keep Deora and her family in mind and say a prayer for them. So sad to lose someone so young to such a tragedy, but she will be remembered forever as one of America's young heroes.

As always, it's very hard for me to read or watch anything about 9-11. I can never hold back the tears. Such a sad time in our country back then. Kuddos to you and Mike for doing something to show how appreciative we are for those heroes of Flight 93.
You and your Husband and friends are awesome to do this. You represent me, too, and hundreds of others, who can't be there in person to remember and honor these true American heroes. Thank you.
