Loyal and True!!

The past two weeks have been a rough one for Cori and I! It started two weeks ago when we found out that our grandma had a heart attack. It was really hard on us because we weren't able to be there with her. There was lots of phone calls to our parents though checking up on her! The doctors said that it wasn't a very serious one but she still had to have a small surgery. They thought she would only be in the hospital for a few days but then her blood pressure dropped really low so they wouldn't let her go home. They did find her unresponsive a couple of times and it was determined that she had had several strokes so the prolonged her stay in the hospital. But the last couple of days she has been doing really well and they say she will be going home soon. But if that wasn't enough to handle another tragedy happened to our University. Friday we found out that a plane had crashed in Arkansas and it was carrying our Women's Head Basketball Coach, Kurt Budke, and his Assistant Coach, Miranda Serna. Also, on the plane was the pilot and his wife. All four lives were lost. This is hard because only 10 short years ago we lost a 10 members of the Men's Basketball program. I really could not believe the news when I heard it. No school should to deal with a loss like this much less have to deal with it twice. But one thing I know is the lives of those 4 people will never be forgotten. They will forever be on our hearts and in our prayers. It is so comforting though knowing that in a time of need your Cowboy family will always be there for you! "...Loyal and True..."
