As you mentioned this is a difficult Christmas because of your wife's passing.  I know I've mentioned this before but it bears repeating.  I, and I think many of your readers of your AARN column, could tell you and Marilyn had had a very special relationship, in and out of racing.  I look forward to your column every week.  Have been to Grandview about 10 times during your announcing career.  Some announcers detract from the racing while I'll always thought you to added something postiive to the show. Getting back to the original meaning of my post, I sincerely hope you have a Very Merry Christmas and may 2023 be a better year for you, and "your racing family"!  Scott Ely
