all of those wonderful people that made my twelve year old daughter’s experience at this (her first) convention one to remember…

Starting with Jay Sands…she got an absolute KICK out of you…as a matter of fact, WE BOTH DID!! At the convention, at the auction…truly a pleasure!!

James C and Tammy for “lending” us their Sarah…she’s an absolute pleasure and we found it very hard to return her to you!!

Barry W and James C for their generous donations to my daughter’s ever-growing slot card collection…to Ralph Meyers for wearing the Krispy Kreme hat from morning ‘til night…to Bernie Sloan for trying to “mow her down”…

and to Jim Kruse – unsuspectingly, you were the cause of one of the most enjoyable nights that I’ve had with my daughter in some time. Sitting just a few rows in front of the “big bidders” at the auction, every time you pointed to them, she thought you were pointing at her as the high bidder…geez, what a chuckle…she didn’t want to blink, scratch her nose, stretch, yawn or anything. And she got the biggest thrill when she won one of the lots. And Andy & Jay made me feel good as they listened intently while she told her story…

As a dad & as a friend…thank you…you made it that much better. Bedo
