RubiKon: Yukon Quest '09

Absence Makes the Heart Fonder

Lori is a very understanding wife and a great mother. She calls us her boys and treats us better than we deserve at times. Her patience is only bested by her love for us. Lori has been very supportive of the expeditionary trip every step of the way and has been an active participant in helping us prepare, She is as excited as we are. When asked by others "how can you let this happen?... or won't you miss them?" she replies that opprotunities like this are very rare and should not be passed by. She feels very strongly about fathers and the time they spend with their sons. Lori not only supports us fully, she encourages us to go. She is an integral part of the RubiKon team. We could never pull this off without her support and love. We are hoping Lori can join us later in the trip. We will miss her dearly.
