How?
I received my card after a general session at the National FFA Convention in Indiana after having the amazing opportunity to sit on the floor with delegates from across the US
I am born and raised in New England. I fell in love with horses at a young age. I’ve continued to ride and recently enrolled in an Agricultural Education program. I ran for FFA office with encouragement from my Advisor. It was the best decision I’ve ever made. Competing in Horse Judging, going to workshops, conferences and COnventions is what I have found to truly love. I do what I love and Love what I do.

I received this card at the 90th National FFA Convention. When he started to to tell the story about Nathan I said to my self this is not going to be good and it wasn’t after I herd that Nathan died 8 hrs after it touched my heart and many others around and I was realizing that how fast stuff like that can happen and it was very heart touching to me. But even tho that was sad I hope everyone that was there had a really good time and experience.
I received this card at the National FFA Convention in Indianapolis, Indiana. The story behind this card brought tears to not only my eyes but my whole chapter’s eyes and even all the way back home to my mother in Tennessee who was watching the Convention on TV. I hope this message touches you as much as it touched 66 thousand FFA members that night.
