Congratulations to you Kate for your remarkable accomplishments as a person and as an athlete. The next time our son John is in town, perhaps he can come to the school and meet you if you two haven't met already. He's the Associate Director of Director of Community and Veterans Programs for the U. S. Olympic Committee Paralympic Division, a silver medalist in the Long Jump at the 2000 Paralympic Games, a 1983 graduate of OPRF High School and a four time All - American at the University of Arkansas. Hope you can make it to England. Donald B. Register
