Memory Books Gone Postal!!!

Hello,

I'm happy to tell you that the memory books have been mailed. Finally...after much stress in dealing with the photographer...they've gone postal!!! They were mailed by the photographer on Tuesday.

A HUGE thank you to Elaine Lau for all of your hard work in proofing and editing our book. Due to an illness in my family I could not work on the project and thankfully Elaine took charge and did a great job. Thank You...Thank You...Thank You, Elaine!

This is the last request for donations to Tim Hufford's Memorial Scholarship. Elaine and I will be presenting the Huffords with a memory book and the donation money. Please feel free to click on the link in the right sidebar to make your donation.

Thank you!

Tim Hufford Scholarship Fund

Hello~

I hope that you are all doing well. I wanted to send one last request to ask you to PLEASE consider donating to Tim's scholarship fund. I sat behind Mr. & Mrs. Hufford at the Jimmy MacDonald Benefit this weekend and told them I would be stopping by really soon with a special gift on behalf of our class. To date I have received donations of $130 and I would love to present them with a much larger donation. Please take the time to make your donation today and together we can keep help Tim's memory alive! You can make a donation of any amount by clicking on the paypal link in the sidebar.

I'll be sure to update you with the donation amount and a photo of Mr. & Mrs. Hufford.

Thanks in advance for your donation.

Blessings to each of you!
Kim

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!
