Mark, hola! It's Olga from Tucson. I just want to tell you I'm recording my CD, and this is going to be on my CD. I called Mark to tell him, just left a message. Maybe we can play that song sometime in Tucson? An idea? I have a good promoter who loves what your dad did, and what he was for. We have to get together and do this. Con mucho Carino, Olga Flores

Oh yes Mark!!! You know I will. I actually am having a CD release Concert and I'm trying to get it so it's at the AVA Amphitheatre. It's going to be a Chicano/Mexican concert with the party directly right after and I'm working with some really good promoters that deal with boxing!!! I'm really excited, and If I can get you, I will definately call you and Dan. Thank you for the honor in just giving me the "ok" to sing your dad's heart felt words that meant so much to so many people!!!Olga
