This tribute makes me smile...T & R are, as they say in their tribute, so any things to each other: co-workers, partners, brother and sister, and yes- spouses. But their love is crystal clear always- and now at 48 and 50 they are like soul mates. Just breathtaking. Thanks for this.

I love the video. I really don't skate you skate. But I always wanted to meet Tai and Randy. There the ones who inspired me to start skating again. I live in Ohio. My name is Jocelyn Kemp and I'm thirteen years old. If Randy Gardner really is your coach tell him I say hi and that him and Tai inspired me to start skating again.

Hello Phil. Hello Sue. I remember you all. Glenn Cohen here. I sharpened skates, drove the Zamboni, etc. at the Santa Monica Ice Capades Chalet in 1978-1979. My claim to fame was in 1980 when I sharpened skates at the 1980 Olympics in Lake Placid. Been out of the business for quite a while now. I stopped by the Fred Segal's a few times over the years, most recently last week with my wife. Memory lane. Bless you all. Hope you're doing well. Glenn

Flag818 - It is a small world... I trained at Santa Monica too. I was training with Darlene Ward and then Mr. Nicks when I blew my knee out. When were you there? (My name is Phil Talsky - your name isn't familiar, but that was a long, long time ago...)

Oh my goodness. I am so glad I found this clip. Ever since I was a little girl (I am an 80s child), The Tai Babilonia story has been my favorite. I watched it over and over and over again--way more than Disney movies.

It feels so good to connect with someone who shared the experience in a different way.
