On February 20, 2012 my family and I toured the canyon by foot, helicopter and boat. It was a beautiful, sun shiny day and although I never met Stacey…I knew she would’ve thought it was breathtaking. I am honored to have “checked off” The Grand Canyon from the list and even more honored to be a part of Team Stacey.xo
My dad and brother and I love the Miami Heat and went to game 6 of the NBA finals. Although they lost, it was a night to remember. I thought of Stacey and how she always wanted to go to the finals. It was my favorite sport event I’ve ever been to.
I traveled down to Cape Canaveral , Florida to view one of the final shuttle launches before the program is closed down. I was very excited to go as I had never seen a rocket launch myself – but the trip took on a special meaning to be able to contribute to Stacey’s list. The launch took place on a beautiful afternoon and the sky lit up from the exhaust flames. We also had an opportunity to tour the adjacent Cape Canaveral Air Force Station and speak with various military personnel in charge of satellites and rocket booster assembly. It could not have been a more interesting trip and one I thought Stacey would have enjoyed very much.
My medical school classmates and I made a day trip up to Napa and Sonoma for an afternoon of wine tasting. It was a beautiful day, full of sunshine, relaxation, and good cheer. I was proud to wear my Foster Foundation pin, and told my friends and classmates how much this afternoon meant to me, to be able to add to Stacey’s list.
In November of 2010, we went halfway around the world to Southeast Asia to visit Thailand. We visited six separate locations, where we tasted much of their local food, rode elephants, went to the full moon party, and visited breath-taking beaches. This is a place we have spoken about for years, and we are ecstatic to add this to Stacey’s “done” list!
