What a night! Thanks so much to everyone that helped out with the Welcome Home Celebration last night. We had a great turn out and Beau was so glad to see everyone! Thank you Chuck Thompson for helping to plan everything. You've been such a good friend to Beau and our family...you'll never know how much we appreciate you. Thanks to Ed Clark for the kind words you said about Beau and our family. You've been a big part of Beau's racing career since the very beginning and he's blessed to call you a friend. Thanks Joey Hancock for using your unique humor and a great message to remind us that God is in control. Thanks to Dawn Thompson, Toni Slade, Pam Glore, Caroline Harvey, Tom Rule, Dan Wallace, Matt McDonald and David Garrett for providing the music. I've always believed our church has the best worship team and y'all proved it last night! Thanks David Wall and Joanna Hardy and all of the Tech Team for setting up the program and making everything run smoothly! Most people have no idea what goes into putting on a program like that (I know I didn't) and we really appreciate all of your hard work. Thanks also to Kevin Mills and Jack Gregory for representing our church family and for the kind words about Beau. And finally, thank you to everyone who showed up last night to officially welcome Beau home. He said it twice while he was up on stage.."It is SO good to be back in Georgia" and we're so glad to have him back!
I know a lot of people weren't able to make it last night so here are some pictures from the Celebration. It was also recorded so hopefully I will be able to get some copies of it if anyone would like to see it! Also, I will be posting the slideshows from the night when I can figure out how to do that :)
Thanks again for supporting Beau through all of this and for continuing to pray for him in the days ahead!
