First weird thing, this message was marked "read" and I never read it?  Second, get yourself a email that is anonymouse (like <!-- e --><a href="mailto:xx@yahoo.com">xx@yahoo.com</a><!-- e -->)  I saw the closet incident and, trust me, if Ollie had been struck in ANY way, we had a squad that was ready to defend him.  Andy is a dumb "redneck" who actually gives redneck a bad name,  he is quite the jerk.  
My support of your family remains and, unless HPOCA changes, my membership is dropping.

First, let me thank you for your support as our family name is trying to be drug through the mud!   I was so angry Saturday after I talked to Dad and Sherry I wanted to paint the HPOCA board John Deer Green and feather them! 

Since you seem to be on top of the enitre situation, I thought I might give you some other points of interest. 

Did you know that Andy has sent Sherry flowers on SEVERAL occasions.   I have seen them first hand.   Andy at one point was calling (harrassing) Sherry so much that a member of the club recommended that she get a restraining order against him.  (At one point it was really bad)  Of course, Sherry didn't it.   I told Sher I wondered if part of this was Andy's way of getting back at her since she didn't return the affection in the way he had hoped. 

Did you know that another  member was told he could not run for office because he dated Sherry Schaefer?  The board actully told the man that was the reason. 

Did you know Dad was taken off the Nominatting Committee without his own knowledge.   Talk about politics. 

Did you know a boardmember got ready to hit Dad in the "Closet" but someone else stopped him?

Sherry has several grounds for a lawsuit to be brought against the board of the HPOCA, but  Sherry won't because of her devotion to the HPOCA history and the club as a whole.   She is not going to punish the entire membership because of a few bad ones! 

Sherry and Dad both have chosen not to respond to the board postings.   They are letting the members come to conclusions without any influence from them.   

The last and final interesting thing is, I signed up to post on this board.  My e-mail address was changed and I didn't do it.   I had made 2 posts and neither of them came up.   Both of them stated alot  of what I mentioned above to you.   Does the ADMIN read and approve before posting.   I just find it weird that my e-mail isn't my e-mail. 

Again, 

Thanks!
