All my prayers for the strength Mike, Suzette and Shannon need will be constant. All of ATM is here for the Bergs, they are the soul of this site and of thre Band of Brothers. God be with them in this time of their need.

Thank all for the well wishes folks. We sure appreciate it. Garrett would have 23 today. I wonder what he would have gotten his college degree in, what he would be doing for a living and wonder what he would have looked like. But I guess this is natural. For some reason, this day has been easier for me than his 21st birthday was. Perhaps it is because I am traveling on business in Colorado. It was nice waking up and seeing the Rocky Mountains.

I talked with Suzette a couple hours ago and her day has been more challenging. I am sure being in the house and waiting for Shannon to finish work make her mind wander. She said that she went and put some new flowers at his grave today and she said that "it seemed to help." She sounded OK but I am sure she just wants tomorrow to get here if that makes any sense.

You know as far as Garrett's legacy - I am fairly confident that he would be very humbled by all this and that he would take it in stride. I think he would be a bit "shy" by all this too. He was just being Garrett, perhaps thats why ATM and what has grown to be "Remembering Those Who Rode" would make him proud. MX was his passion and he loved the people who do it.

May we as a group of people always "Remember Those Who Rode" and may we cherish the memories and apply the knowledge we learned from them all
to our daily lives.

Thanks again for caring and please be careful when you ride. Life is precious and it never seems to last quite long enough.

I have know idea about what his degree would be, but I would be willing to bet he would have a factory ride by now or very close. The way he rode, there is no doubt in my mind. Happy Birthday bro! GS393
