| President Bush visiting with Christopher and Mathew... At that time, we were just starting to offer financial assistance to surviving spouses, barely had any resources at all... We didn’t really know what to do. This is one of those moments when you see things clearly and realize it is not about the money; it is about showing that you care. We asked mom what the kids like, found out it was anything to do with sports. Mathew liked surfing but didn’t have a surfboard, Christopher liked soccer or tennis. So we got a few leads. |
