E.J. was a wonderful person. This, my first year at autocross racing, she
made me feel so welcome; pointing to the cooler on a hot day; lying
straight to my face by telling me what wonderful car control I had. She
did a lot to encourage me and make me feel like part of the group. I never
had the chance to tell her how grateful I am for all the kindness that she
showed me during the short time that I knew her.
So E. J. where ever you are, thank you so very much. I will miss your
smile.
