Mrs. Eunice Kennedy Shriver, your passing away caused incomparable sorrow to us --- the families of the intellectually disabled people. Your great contribution to and solicitous care of the Special Olympics movement made us immersed in deep longing for you.

The Special Olympics movement you initiated has changed the way of thinking of the athletes, their families and the public. Special Olympics is now a great link that leads to acceptance of the ID people in our society. We are determined to carry on your ideas and under your guidance. We will devote ourselves to the development of Special Olympics.

We love you forever, Mrs. Shriver in the heaven!

Yours sincerely,

Xiao Zhonglin

SO Family, Beijing
