I really have a need to thank Randy Pausch. He has touced me in so many ways. Does anyone a have an e-mail where I can let him know how much I admire him and want to share everything to my son that he has written and he has talked about in his talks.

All I have to say is thank you. Thank you, Dr. Randy Pausch for inspiring me to live my life more fully and really achieve my childhood dreams, as well as help my children achieve theirs. Thank you to Randy's wife and children for your generosity in sharing him with us and caring for him during the time it took to develop The Last Lecture and present it to the world at large with Oprah and ABC appearances, etc. I am so grateful and will live my life differently because of Randy and the message he so eloquently presented to all of us. For I will never lose the childlike wonder. It is too important. It is what drives us all.

Respectfully,
Lisa Casas
