R.I.P. Kyle Busch
Posted in Sports
When my boys were quite young, we watched a lot of NASCAR. They weren’t into baseball or football, and the Blackhawks hadn’t yet captured their attention as they would for most of their middle school and high school years. We watched the race most weeks, and each of us picked someone to root for.
The boys were bandwagon fans and picked either Jimmie Johnson or Jeff Gordon. I always picked Kyle Busch.
Earlier today, I read he was hospitalized with a severe illness, but figured it was just that, and he’d be fine. Sadly, I just read that it wasn’t the case, and he died at 41.
He will always live fondly in my memories and, as they say, I hope his memory is a blessing to his family too.
