Nine years ago today, Caitlyn Jackson was diagnosed with Leukemia.
She was a fierce fighter as she was able to conquer Leukemia twice. After a three and a half year battle, our little Caity-Bug succumbed to the complications of treatments for Leukemia.
I became friends with the beautiful and vibrant youngster indirectly through a contest the radio station conducted.
She would visit me on many of my remote broadcasts. I always enjoyed seeing her and spending time with her and the Jackson family.
Caity volunteered for the St. Jude Radiothon on several occasions. It's something that was important to her. We continue to honor her memory and her legacy each year during the fundraising efforts.
I feel blessed to have spent time with her. I think of her often and have fond memories of her.
This song by Kenny Chesney was our Classic Cut today. It's dedicated to her memory, and the love she had for life, her family and friends.
You've earned your wings sweetheart.
Continue to soar and check in on us every once in a while.
