Dear Grand Canyon State Games Loyalist,
Please accept this document effective as of July 29, 2013 as my official retirement as the Executive Director of the Grand Canyon State Games. It has been a great 18 year ride and I thank you for the pleasure of being your Executive Director, but it is just time! Emotionally please understand I prefer to just fade away as I ride off into the sunset void of any fanfare.
Respectfully,
Wid

"I couldnt have said it any better..."
What knocks you down, only makes you stronger!! A door has been re-opended for Adam and our family as Adam is once again a SF 49er!! I am so incredibly proud of my husband who continues to persevere. God is great and continues to present our family with amazing opportunities. In this case, we may be able to finish where we started. Thank you so much to all of our wonderful family and friends who support us through the ups and downs. We are truly blessed! GO NINERS!!!!! (excerpt from Erika Snyder's Facebook page)

"Unforgiven"
"We had almost forgotten that this was the new normal" ~Montini
But that does not mean I have to like it.
Country music star Tim McGraw wrote his blockbuster song "LIVE LIKE YOU WERE DYING" Due to my present situation sometimes, I am not sure this isn't the best way. "But not so fast."
The unprecedented reaction of Boston's first responders has been amazing to watch. One of our nations greatest cities has given us a lesson in how to put teamwork above all else.
From the President on down there will be a relentless pursuit of the cowardly individual(s) responsible for this horrific crime. I have no doubt that the heavy hand will fall. At least, it better!
Thoughts and prayers to all inflicted.
God Bless America!
