To all my FordGT family.
I Just wanted to let you know that Megan will graduate from Univ. Of Michigan with a Masters in Public Health and from Michigan State University Medical School as a Doctor on May 2, 2013. She then gets married to Ryan ( a Marine, who also graduates from Medical School on May 2, 2013) on June 8, 2013. You guys have not met Ryan as of yet.
Megan always talks about the two FGT Rallys she attended (Newport Beach and Vegas-- and the other trips to Scottsdale for Medical School ) and in the future both Megan and Ryan want to attend a FGT Rally.
A note of thanks to Dave and Francesca our Forum 'owners', Rich and Evelyn and puppies for leading us to Arizona in the trailer for the first time, to Chip and family for the welcome 'stays' in Scottsdale, to George for allowing Megan to be his shotgun/navigator on the Angelis highway, to the Mooses and the welcome in their home and the Arizona clan, To Dr. Frank for his advice on Medical School and professions, to Stormcat for his warm welcoming to Megan, to Camillo for his always down to earth inclusion of Megan at all the events, Tony , Tim Cantwell and sons for fun at Newport, Ralphie and Jeff...well just for being themselves. I am sure I forgot many individuals, sorry, but thanks to all of you.... Andy (AJB) and Margaret Benedict

Ha ha, I wouldn't want their bills. Two medical educations to pay for? Whoa baby. I wish them the best of luck. When they start their internships on July 1, you probably won't see them again until the following June 30. Now's the time for you and Margaret to develop symptoms and ask a lot of stupid medical questions to assure them you have faith in their medical opinions.

Congratulations, I sat with you guys in Las Vegas. I wish them with the best. My Son Graduates with honors from UC Davis in June and starts Dental School at UOP in San Francisco where Ed Sims and I went to school. I cannot imagine tackling a wedding at the same time as graduating, but they are smart kids and I wish them a happy life together.
