Tunramint an neerly alwaze faced eech uthur in da soomo ring. Effun tho
sumhow he wuz bigger den me, he neffur tuk unfare advantage. He had not
onlee da skill with all da diffrent soomo moves in da ring, but he
egsemplified da highest ideels an da tradishuns uv da sport at all tymes.
Fur exampul, da furst tyme we met in da ring, az soon as he wun, he helped
me git bak up in da most honurrable fashun. The wurld uv Kitty Soomo is a
much bettur place becuz of Rascal's part in it an I will miss him lots.
