Our
Guestbook! Hey Courtney! I have SMA too! I have been emailing your aunt Rhea & she's been telling me some great things about you! It seems I don't live too far away, so feel free to email me whenever you need someone to talk to or just wanna talk about girl stuff! Best wishes, Linh Hope you are still doing well Courtney. Your photos are gorgeous. Keep on doing well at school, you are an inspiration! Courtney, I know God is watching over you. You are truly one of his special gifts.
Love,
Kris Wright Courtney, I work with your NaNa. She has shown me lots of pictures of you. You are a living doll.She has also told me stories about you,your brother and you cousins.Ya'll are joy's in her life. Keep up your fight to be strong and trust in the Lord. Kathi Hi Courtney, I hope all has gone well with you and your family over the past several months. Now that March is here that means warm weather is coming and that means Harley riding weather. I still am going to keep my promise about you and Thomas getting to ride on some Harleys! We would love for you and your family to join us on one of our Friday night dinner rides if possible. I talked to Bruce (aka Joker) last week and told him we still owed you a ride. Just have your Mom let me know when it's a good time and we will plan some rrrumbling!! Hi Courtney,
Hope you are feeling much better these days, I understand that you were a little under the weather for awhile. You didn't skip any school did you? I received an email from your Aunt recently stating you would very much like to ride on a Harley. Whenever you get ready to ride you just let me know. I will be more than happy to give you and your brother a ride whenever you are ready. You've got my email address so feel free to drop me a line whenever you want. Hope you have a terrific Christmas! Hi Courtney. I'm a member of Panther Creek HOG. I was so disappointed I was not able to attend the Love Ride to meet you. But I have read your website, beginning to end. You have a beautiful spirit that spreads to everyone through your site.
Thank you and Aunt Rhea for sharing with us.
God bless you little angel! Courtney, We were thinking about you last night. A bunch of us went to the Magnolia theater to meet Oscar, Ami's Brother. We took some pictures that will be on our website soon, http://www.panthercreekhog.com Hope you are feeling better, we missed seeing your smile. Courtney: There are many people that you will meet in life. Some of those people you will forget. Some will leave an impression on your heart. You did that for me.
I will never forget your beautiful smile and how happy you were to sit on my
fiancé's motorcycle with your brother. My fiancé, Wes, is the biker who had the funny skeleton mask. I bet you remember him?!!
I pray you stay strong and healthy and never lose that wonderful spirit. You are a blessing to your family and I am proud that I got to be there to help escort you to the showing of Ami's movie.
God bless you sweetheart. Diane Thompson Courtney,
You don't know me but I met you last Monday night at the review of 39 Pounds of Love. I was one of the bikers that came up on our Harleys. I saw you on the TV Tuesday when they were reporting about the event. You looked really good in your do-rag that Joker gave you! Hope to see you again Friday night at the premiere of the movie. You are a beautiful little girl and I am so proud of you. Keep up the good work! My name is Bruce and some call me Joker. That is my bike name. I was the one that gave you my green frog covered head rag. The one you had when we went to the movies to watch Ami's story.
You have the most beautiful smile. Thanks for spenting the time with me and my biker friends. You and your family will always be in my thoughts and prayers.
Your buddy,
Joker.
Courtney,
It was our pleasure to share some time with you and your family the other night at the showing of 39 Pounds of Love. You and your brother looked pretty good on that Harley.
A group of us are going to the movie again on Friday December 9th, maybe we will see you again there.
God Bless

I signed in before I looked at the wedding pictures! They are adorable! Girl you looked wonderful. I love the one with you and Amanda when she is looking at you. The caption says that she is cleaning pretzel salt off your face, that picture should go in a

Cherrish Courtney I can't wait to show this off to my
Kindergarten class! You were so beautiful at Amanda and Parrish's wedding. It meant so much to both of them to have you be a part of their wedding day. Your such an amazing young lady! Please, please, please come to Houston for Kindergarten????

Love,
Amy First off I Want to say you're all in my prayers the whole family. I would love to be able to do something more than just writing in this comment column. I just don't know what I could possibly do other than tell you how Courtney's story and pictures have directly effected me. Courney's story has impacted and touched my life in such a way that has changed my outlook on my life itself since I have read her story. When I get discouraged and things just seem to be looking bad in my little world. I think of her little smiling face and how happy she looks despite all the challenges your brave little angel faces, I realize just how blessed I'am and no matter how bleak my problems look, my little insignificant problems just pale in comparison. In closing I hope to bring a smile to your faces. I would like to thank Aunt Rhea for writing this story and how its changed my attitude and life which has been directly effected in such a positive way. DC |
