Man it is hard to watch her speak. I know what shes doing but guys...she is barely keeping it together by a thread!
You gotta leave her alone for a bit.
Give her a break.

Crazy how many people they’ve touched including all of us.
The fact we’re all sharing the same onions over a guy most of us barely knew let alone met in real life shows you the courage and strength the Snows had to share their story with the world.
Truly inspiring, hopefully Chris’s fight can and generosity can continue to help find a cure for this absolutely terrible disease.
Rest easy.

Sorry, I didnt realize what we were talking about as, for whatever reason, that link isnt working for me.
I was thinking about Ryan Leslie's interview with her at last night's game and she was barely keeping it together, not Chris Snow's official Memorial.
Mea Culpa.

A suitably beautiful tribute to a fantastic person. We're all going to miss Chris.

See...this is the kind of thing we need more of.
Chris Snow is going to re-define 'The Snowball Effect.'
He did his bit, fought his fight, then he donated his organs and now everyone is keeping that fight alive...like a snowball going downhill.

Reading through this thread tonight is pretty gut wrenching.
Tbh, up until 30 minutes ago, I didn't really understand what the value of the snows sharing their story was. I do now. In a way it's a bit of a priceless gift, even if it doesn't feel like it right now. It going to allow us to better prioritize and cherish the time we have left together.

I LOL'd with tears in my eyes reading this bit in the article above.
Snowy talking to Brad about a player he didn't like:
Quote:
|
The message would pop up on my phone and there was always this Snowy wit: “You’re so lucky I can’t talk right now. The words I would use if I could talk right now would bring you to tears.”
|
RIP Snowy. You were a brilliant man and true warrior. May we all aspire to handling challenges with as much grace as you.

Are they going to have to ask his wife how many swings he landed? For 'Accounting purposes?'
