Succesful Raffle Complete!

Gentlemen, The raffle is officially over! All 14 prize winners have chosen prizes and they are being shipped as soon as possible.

I want to one last time congratulate and thank all those who participated in giving Ed and Terry Tinker a boost in their time of need. These generous donations will go a long way towards helping them with unexpected expenses as well as reinforcing their belief in the kindness and generosity of the Band of Brothers they choose to associate with.

I wish to especially thank those who generously donated additional prizes, Thanks for the help!

One other group that must be recognized , without them it could not be done is John Dunkle and Jan C. Still. These Gentlemen have allowed us to join together and make it happen. Thank you both, words alone cannot express the gratitude I feel.

Ellie and I were, and still are, stunned at the outpouring of help.
I know it was not the desire to win prizes that help came but because people genuinely care.

We will be sending out their check on Monday I suppose. If Ed and Terry wish to let the Forum know what that amount is they can do so.

We wish them good luck in getting back to normal.

Thanks to all of you who have lauded Ellie and I. We appreciate the support . We look forward to doing something else!

One more group needs to be thanked with respect to this raffle.

This group is Jerry and Ellie, without whom, this effort would not have taken place.

Not only did they donate prizes, but they also donated a more valuable item - their time.
