Thank you Dave for your vision, creativity, love, blood, sweat & tears ... Always to be known as #RSL Founder http://instagr.am/p/U4X0B2MFRW/
I owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to Dave Checketts and his entire family. They have changed my life in an absolutely wonderful way..
And I will never, ever forget that! We will all miss you, Dave. You are the ultimate leader and I hope our paths can cross again some day!
9 years ago, my dad informed me he was in talks with @MLS to bring a soccer team to Utah. I asked him why ... here's what he said:
"I want to build something of value for my home state. The state that I love." Bitersweet ending today, but mission accomplsihed, dad. #RSL
Thanks for the memories, dad. Proud of you. #RSL4Life @ Rio Tinto Stadium http://instagr.am/p/U4nS2JKl7e/
Eyes welling up listening to Dave speak. Amazing man that helped my family through our rough patch, plenty of conversations together#LEGEND
