Favorite saying

• "ONE QUARTER MILE FROM HEAVEN Like a guardian angel from four cars back, watching Micheal & Dale Jr. as they circled the track. No intention on winning just holding his place, So proud of his "boys" now winning the race. We thought it was over, the end was so near. No time for pain..no time for fear. We did not know as there was no sign, Dale was one-quarter mile, from his final finish line. Within an instant, fans would be facing, an eternal change in the world of racing. He was on of the greatest, Beloved in his sport, with a grand career now sadly cut short. All the crowd noticed was excitement and debris, but a miracle was happening we could not see. Dale said goodbye through shining metal and chrome, As God gave # 3 the checkered flag "Home". But forever in our hearts, and in the scheme of things, We'll picture him circling heaven black and red wings. Grinning: telling angels..and even the creator, Look out over there... here comes... THE INTIMIDATOR # 3 DALE EARNHEARDT # 3 1951- 2001"
