I can tell you that it is GREAT to lose to a friend! Actually, if you take a look at my mug shot on this site, then look at Bev Fischers' picture in the Nov/Dec magazine I'm amazed that I got the votes I did!! Bev and Donnie already do so much for this Club by hauling their great collection to a bunch of shows every year. And with Bev's experience, the Club finances are in expert hands.
For those kind folks that voted for me (must be some blind members out there) thanks a million.
For those that just &quot;put up&quot; with me, thanks for your patience.......and as I have stated repeatedly, I consider it to have been an honor and privlage to serve the great members of this club, and the current Board of Directors,especially Andy Blackwood, Marc Sletten and  Nelson LeCount. for all the help in getting the club back on solid financial ground.   <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->
