FEBRUARY 18, 2001 NASCAR DRIVER DALE EARNHARDT DIED FROM HEAD INJURIES AFTER HITTING THE WALL ON THE LAST LAP OF THE DAYTONA 500. HE WAS AND ALWAYS WILL BE THE BEST DRIVER NASCAR WILL EVER HAVE. MY HEART AND PRAYERS GO OUT TO HIS FAMILY, FRIENDS AND FANS. DALE, I'LL LOVE YOU FOREVER!!! NASCAR WILL NEVER BE THE SAME ..KERRI98
THE MEMORY I WILL HOLD FOREVER
BELOW IS A SLIDE SHOW I HAVE CREATED IN MEMORY OF DALE EARNHARDT
My heart raced when I spotted the Dale Earnhardt stand.
There was everything I wanted at that particular stand.
My smile was huge and my heart raced faster.
I picked out some stuff and set out to find my driver.
At the track I arrived,the engines were loud.
My pulse was rapid as I walked through the crowd.
There were racers in practice and the sound was like thunder.
This was my first time at a race, I was in complete wonder.
I walked through the tunnel to get to the pits.
As I came out of the tunnel, who did I see?Noone other than the driver of car #3.
That car raced by me as my eyes teared up.
My hand trembled as I clutched my new #3 cup.
Was a day I will forever cherish, some may not understand.
I wouldn't expect you to, unless you have been one of the lucky millions who have sat in the stands.

THE FOLLOWING IS A POEM THAT WAS WRITTEN FOR ME BY SOMEONE VERY CLOSE TO ME,IT HAS TOUCHED ME AND HAS WARMED MY HEART IN THE MOST UNUSUAL WAY! THE SAME WONDERFUL MAN WHO WROTE THIS FOR ME, GAVE ME THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO TO THE DURALUBE 500 WHICH WAS HELD AT PHOENIX INTERNATIONAL RACEWAY A FEW MONTHS AGO.
The roar of the engines fill your mind
As your heart races and beats in time
To the rhythmic sounds of tuned machines
You're a #1 FAN for the Earnhardt team
You're eyes sparkle as you watch them race
There is the sweetest glow across your face
And your greatest joy is always found
In feeling those engines shake the ground
Something tells me, he knows you're there
Cheering for him, with your hands in the air
He is watching you now, cause he is honored by you
You're his #1 fan, with all that you do
Although he is gone now, His engine you hear
As you recall watching him, and proudly cheer
The thunder of #3 car in your memory stays pure
You are his #1 fan, and he knows this for sure
You are true and you are blue, He is so proud of you today
And he knows you are mourning, so there is nothing to say
But he feels your emotions and he smiles at your heart
Cause you're the best #1 Fan of Dale Earnhardt
