I know. I have seen it a few times now. It is so heartbreaking. It is amazing how well she does her speach.

Very,very sad.What a trooper she is.

By Sandysmom on Friday, September 22, 2006 - 10:03 am:

She is a special little girl. I was looking at Terri, his wife, and I felt so bad for her. She looked like she was barely keeping it together.

Is her name Belinda?? You can tell she's used to the spotlight because she didn't fumble or stumble or have a bit of trouble. All that was missing was that she never looked up. Adorable accent. Very pretty and poised little girl. It must have touched her mom and how fortunate they will always have that on video.

No her name is Bindi after a Croc from Steves past.

By Kate on Friday, September 22, 2006 - 10:27 am:

Ohhhhh....I know 'Melinda' often becomes Mindy, and Mindy Sue is a fairly common name (at least, it's not unheard of anyway....) so I thought she must be Belinda! Thanks for explaining that.

CRYING!!!!!!

I watched it the other night and my heart broke for Terri. Bindi did such an amazing job! What a great little girl she is. The whole show was wonderful.

I thought she was named after the dog ... or is that the Sue part? The whole thing is terribly tragic. But somewhere Steve is proud. He has left the world a better place - not just because of his work, but because of the two little ones he left who will continue his work.

By Bellajoe on Friday, September 22, 2006 - 02:03 pm:

i just want to give all of them a big hug!

By Dawnk777 on Friday, September 22, 2006 - 02:20 pm:

I sobbed, when I watched it. Just the fact that she was holding it all together, as she read, made me cry! What an articulate little kid she is!

Something is wrong with the speakers on my computer right now (it was fine until Shawn hooked up his wireless router), so I couldn't HEAR her tribute. But my word, she LOOKS just like her Daddy and even WALKS like him. The same kind of energy emanates from her. Even little Bob looks like him. Adorable children!

Yes, poor Terry. You can SEE her pain. However, she has two little parts of Steve in her babies. How terribly sad.

By Sunny on Saturday, September 23, 2006 - 10:06 am:

I saw it and thought it was so sad. She reminds me a lot of her father.

By Reds9298 on Saturday, September 23, 2006 - 09:43 pm:

Such a precious girl and a wonderful speaker! I feel so sad for his wife. I didn't get the cheering though??? That was STRANGE to me.

It was a show of support, I imagine, Deanna.
