This is a long story but it's why just a simple thank you doesn't do justice for these tickets. In 1988 my mother took me to see my favorite country singer of all time, Randy Travis. The only thing I remember about the concert is what I was told by my mom. She said that my four year old self was so excited I fell asleep and no matter how hard she tried I would not wake up. I had always hoped to be able to go see him in concert again with my mom to "make up" for falling asleep on her. When he had his stroke about seven years ago I gave up hope of ever getting to see him in a concert setting with my mom. A few months ago, this event popped up on Facebook. I was beyond excited because my family was in a stable place. I put off getting tickets to make sure I would be able to have the time off to go when it got closer to the concert. Unfortunately for me, my life took a nose dive and I had to resign from my job because of a toxic environment that was triggering PTSD symptoms and had me on the verge of a mental break down. As the primary income for my family, our budget dropped drastically, and my hopes had once again crashed of ever seeing him on stage once again. Since I've been waiting to hear back about employment, I check my phone. To my shock the email that came through was for tickets to A Heroes & Friends Tribute to Randy Travis. I talked with my amazing wife and she agreed to figuring it out so I could go. I got the tickets and texted my mom to call me when she could. When she called I asked her if she was busy Tuesday and whe. She said no I told her that she was going with me to the show. I drove four hours from the Fort Knox area to Huntsville and finally got to see him with my mom. For a few hours, my mom got to see her almost 40 year old son see his country music hero awake for the first time. (Ha ha) This is truly a memory that neither of us will ever forget. I hope you now see why I say a simple thank you would never do justice. From the bottom of my heart I am truly grateful for your kindness and generosity in donating the tickets.
