WEEK 42 – FOUR DAYS TO GO
It’s Tuesday night and its taking everything I have to blog tonight. I am just not in the mood. I have lost my focus. As many of you know, Dre lost her sister-n-law and my D3 drop down challenge, workout partner and friend Roz Glanton. I am devastated. The reality of it set in today as I received calls early this morning.
Dre summed it up in her email to the D3 family. Roz was a beautiful, beautiful person! One of the hardest working individuals I have ever met. I would always tell her how much she has inspired me. I admired how she worked through her physical challenges and still managed to lose a RIDICULOUS amount of weight. If she couldn’t lift, she was at the health club, early in the morning swimming. Always positive, always had words of encouragement …
She texted me a week before her surgery to let me know that she was having surgery, and that she was going still going to try and attend my 1st competition to cheer me on. She told me how proud she was of me – which she often did! I sent her a text a couple of days after her surgery to let her know I was thinking of her and asked how she was feeling. She sent a text back, “I’m fine.” My last text to her was … “now don’t be pushing yourself doing P90X at home … I know you!” That was our last exchange.
Roz, your physical presence will be GREATLY missed but your BEAUTIFUL SPIRIT endures FOREVER in our hearts and souls!
Please pray for Dre and Roz’ entire family.

I just received this news this morning. I am so hurt, so broken hearted. Roz supported me while I worked at D3 and during my contest prep. She surprised me and came to my competition with camera ready and snapped a ton of pics. I am definitely going to miss her.
