So Archie laid the foundation, and today he stands as a tower for all athletes, saying, "If you want it, leave your excuses behind and come and get it." Will he be missed? No--he lives! Every time...

...doing everything you can to protect your children? What if, God forbid, your daughter developed leukemia and needed a bone-marrow transplant? What if neither you nor your spouse could offer a close enough match to donate marrow?
