The Way We Were

Memories
Like the corners of my mind
Misty watercolor memories
Of the way we were


Congrats, Matt. We miss you.

Love,
All of BC

To the Boston College Alumni Association of Atlanta:

I want to take this opportunity to thank each of you for supporting me as I enter my first NFL season with the Atlanta Falcons. It means a lot to know that there will be a group of BC Alumni cheering me on during the first game of my career. I can only hope that my time here in Atlanta will be as personally and professionally successful as my time was at BC. Hopefully at some point in the future, I?ll have the opportunity to meet and thank each of you in person. In the meantime, enjoy the game and go Falcons!

Again, thank you for all your support.

Matt Ryan

Thanks to Kyla and Mike from the BC Club for putting this together.
