  “Dear Evan & Tammy, I’m very grateful for your generous donation to my humble efforts to help raise funds and awareness for the Toronto Sick Kids Cancer unit. I want you to know how much Heather & I are thinking about all your family and pulling for you as you manage all these challenges you face with such courage and dignity. I can sincerely tell you that Griff rides with me in my heart each day I set out on my bike. I’m certain the many millions that have been raised over the past 7 yrs this ride has been happening has contributed to Griff and so many other kids receiving the best of care possible and most up to date treatments that give hope for genuine recovery. That thought keeps my legs pedalling each day and even though I’ve not met him yet, I consider Griff to be one of my super-heroes! Some day we hope to meet you all so if you find yourselves in The County with a few mins to visit you’d be welcomed at our home in Milford. Thanks and take care.”
